The government has assured the public that the supply of LPG to households will remain uninterrupted, despite tensions in West Asia affecting crude oil supplies.
Sujata Sharma, a Joint Secretary in the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, noted a 30% increase in domestic LPG production since March, alleviating fears of shortages.
Conflict in West Asia, specifically around the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil transit route, has heightened concerns, but authorities emphasize there's no need for panic booking as demand temporarily spikes due to geopolitical unrest.
