Additional measures to ensure domestic LPG supplies likely in Telangana

An uneasy calm around domestic cooking gas supplies has come to grip households despite public sector oil marketing companies introducing various measures in recent days to ensure the availability and advising the consumers against resorting to panic booking.

There is a spike of upto 40% in the number of domestic LPG refill bookings over the last few days in Telangana, said sources, who did not wish to be identified. However, many of the deliveries, especially in rural areas, could not be completed for want for empty cylinders.
