In response to persistent worries about commercial LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) availability for establishments like hotels and restaurants, the Odisha government announced steps to address the supply.
Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare Minister Krushna Chandra Patra said commercial LPG allocation has been increased to 50%. “While 20% was designated for commercial use, the central government has permitted an additional 20% to states specifically for restaurants and hotels. The remaining 10% is subject to certain conditions for supply. Of these, 40% will be made available from today,” he said.
