**Supply continues despite pressure**
Meanwhile, according to an update released by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas on Thursday, about 1.47 crore domestic LPG cylinders were delivered in the last three days, while about 1.36 crore new bookings were made during the same period. Despite supply chain disruptions due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, regular supplies of cooking gas continue to be supplied to homes across the country.
The general public is advised not to indulge in panic buying of petrol, diesel and LPG, beware of rumors and rely on government sources for correct information. LPG customers are urged to use digital booking platforms and avoid visiting the distributor in person. “All refineries are operating at full capacity with abundant crude oil stocks, and adequate stocks of petrol and diesel are being maintained. Domestic LPG production has also been increased at refineries to meet domestic demand,” a government statement said.
