RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA------------------------------Domestic gas is available in sufficient quantities in Bhojpur district. Issuing a press release in this regard, the District Administration stated that there are a total of 30 Indane distributors in Bhojpur district for gas supply, who currently have 5,626 domestic gas cylinders available. Additionally, there are 06 Bharat Gas distributors with 1,280 LPG cylinders, and 09 Hindustan Petroleum distributors with 4,411 LPG cylinders available for distribution today.

The District Administration has requested everyone to book their gas and wait at home, rather than forming unnecessary queues at gas agencies. Gas cylinders will be delivered to homes within 48 hours of booking. Unnecessary crowding and queuing at gas agencies are leading to law and order issues. Strict action will be taken under the provisions of the Essential Commodities Act upon receipt of any information regarding the black marketing of gas.
