Amidst rising tensions, long lines formed outside gas agencies in Bihar as citizens awaited their LPG cylinders, despite officials assuring that supplies remain robust. District authorities have committed to stern action against black marketing and are tackling alleged delivery shortfalls.
In Patna, an FIR was lodged against a gas delivery worker accused of mishandling bookings. Meanwhile, gas agency inspections intensified, leading to closure orders for non-compliant operators. Authorities issued a district-wide helpline to assist frustrated consumers.
Despite claims of widespread issues, Bihar's district magistrates maintain the situation under control, refuting rumors, and ensuring swift corrective measures. Proactive coordination with gas providers, regular stock assessments, and public grievance platforms aim to quell concerns.
