Muzaffarpur hospital blaze kills 3 patients, leaves 20 injured
The Government of India has announced a 20 percent quota in the supply of commercial LPG cylinders to address the ongoing shortage affecting businesses across the country. The decision is aimed at ensuring that key sectors, particularly hotels and restaurants, continue to receive essential fuel for daily operations amid disruptions in gas availability.
The shortage has been linked to supply disruptions triggered by the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel, which has impacted gas availability in India. With commercial LPG cylinders becoming difficult to obtain in several areas, the newly announced quota is expected to ease pressure on the hospitality sector by reserving a portion of the available supply for commercial users.
