In a crucial meeting held on Thursday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath conducted a comprehensive review of the state's cooking gas, or LPG, availability. He issued strict directives to officials to ensure that the supply of LPG cylinders continues without any interruptions across the state.
Strict Orders to Prevent Panic and Rumors
During the review, CM Adityanath emphasized the importance of maintaining a stable supply chain and gave explicit instructions to crack down on any rumour-mongering regarding potential shortages. He stated that no panic situation should be allowed to develop, underscoring the need for proactive measures to prevent misinformation from spreading among consumers.
Key directives included:
- Ensuring timely supply of LPG cylinders to all consumers who book them, in strict accordance with prescribed rules and regulations.
- Preventing any artificial shortage from arising at any level of the distribution network.
- Maintaining a close watch on the demand and supply dynamics to address issues promptly.
Meeting with Oil and Gas Company Executives
The Chief Minister held detailed discussions with senior executives from various oil and gas companies operating in Uttar Pradesh. The meeting focused on assessing the current demand and supply status of LPG in the state, with a goal to identify and resolve any bottlenecks that could affect availability.
