📢इन राज्‍यों में सिलेंडर की सप्‍लाई फिर शुरू🗞️ - Ensure cylinder scarcity scare doesn't turn into law and order issue : Centre to states Dipak Dash , Atul Mathur & Bharti Jain | TNN New Delhi : The Centre on Wednesday asked states to ad- dress LPG cylinder supply constraints and ensure fears of scarcity do not turn into a law and order issue . State govts were also asked to check black marketing and hoarding of cooking gas cylinders , amid reports of panic booking . TOI has learnt that in a meeting with chief secretaries and DGPS , chaired by home secretary Govind Mohan , pet- roleum secretary Niraj Mittal informed the top state officials there was no reason to panicas availability of both natural gas and domestic supply re- main govt's priority . The Centre shared details of two recent orders while clarifying that restrictions on the distribution of LPG ap- ply only to commercial estab- lishments . Hospitals and edu- cational institutions have been kept out of restrictions . Since there is no shortage to meet domestic LPG supply , states have a bigger role to en- sure that there is no panic buying , said an official . The states have also been asked to watch prices of es- sential commodities consid- ering that there is ample availability of these items . Consumer affairs secretary Nidhi Khare spoke about the prices of essential commodi- ties being in a comfortable zone and added that the Cen- tre was monitoring 40 com- modities , an official said . States were informed that Centre is tapping additional sources to increase availabili- ty and that alternative option of electric induction should be looked at to tide over the cri- sis ... said another official . Mohan advised states to protect the LPG supply chain by ramping up security of in- frastructure and personnel , monitor LPG supplies on a daily basis , and bust ru- mours , especially on social media , in real time to avoid any panic . States have also been asked to set up control rooms at state and district level to monitor the evolving situa- tion , as well as designate offi- cials for grievances redressal as it was done during Covid . - ShareChat
