Sawant said the government is closely monitoring the situation and taking necessary steps to ensure a steady supply of LPG across the state. He expressed confidence that the temporary disruption would be resolved soon.
The Chief Minister emphasised that hoarding by consumers could worsen the situation and create artificial shortages in the market. He therefore appealed to people to purchase LPG cylinders only as per their actual requirement.
