LPG shortages

LPG availability looks like a real problem. Even food vendors on street carts have increased the prices by 40% to 60%. Same holds good for tea shops. From what I hear, this is already having a strong impact on low income earners and migrant workers.

The LocalCircles survey also shows 10% are buying in black and black is 400-4000. 43% facing delays. What is the Government doing ?

What is government doing? You have spoken like Rahul Gandhi. Remember LPG is not manufactured in Government factory, imported from other countries , because of Iran war it is happening. Has anyone faced LPG problem since 2014? No Don't try to be oversmart. Problems are faced by everyone across the world. Seems you are a blind supporter of ??? more  
Looks like Indians have stopped using brains and keeping eyes closed to what is external environment is. We are not ready to compromise on comfort 'despite of knowing that there is limit to which govt. can do anything about this. We are far better than other countries and still cribbing will not stop. Chill that we still have supplies. more  
Food carts and roadside eateries are a commercial activity, could be on a small scale but commercial activity nevertheless! And most of them use domestic LPG cylinders! They are the ones who are affected! There’s no shortage of commercial cylinders! Don’t you think they should shift to commercial cylinders? We have quite a few medium sized hotels who use half a dozen cylinders everyday! All domestic? Do they deserve subsidies? more  
Govt also have limitations and they are doing their best. Many countries could not get their shipment and face a nightmare. Easy to ask what Govt is doing? more  
Ms Ruchika. It seems you have a suggestion on which the Govt can act. Pl come out with it. Also pl read the steps Govt is taking and has takenwith including the number of ships already on way to India with LPG crude oil which we need. Govt has also taken steps to minimise the impact of cost increase from passing it on to the public, more
