In the midst of the gas shortage, the government has announced that individuals who have both a PNG connection and a domestic LPG connection will not be allowed to retain or refill their domestic LPG cylinders from any oil company or its distributor. They have to surrender their domestic LPG connections immediately.

The Gujarat DGP In-Charge told the media at Surat that the police have been instructed to deal very strictly with individuals found hoarding or selling LPG cylinders at high rates.

Rao told reporters that in a meeting with collectors, district supply officers, and officials from the Civil Supplies Department, he directed that vehicles belonging to LPG agencies and distributors not be stopped so that supplies continue uninterrupted. He added that strict inspections will be conducted to ensure that LPG cylinders are safe and leak-free.

Speaking to reporters in Guna, Union Minister Scindia said that the Prime Minister has assured the citizens of the country that there will be no shortage of oil, kerosene, or diesel. "We are making every effort to ensure gas supplies, and due to the success of the Prime Minister's diplomacy, the Strait of Hormuz has been opened for India, ensuring that the country does not face any shortage of oil or gas," he said.
