Oil Marketing Companies have constituted a three-member Committee at the Executive Director level to oversee and ensure rationalised and equitable distribution of commercial LPG across States. Minister of State for Petroleum and Natural Gas Suresh Gopi said this in a written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha today. He said that the availability of imported LPG in the country has been impacted due to ongoing geopolitical developments in West Asia. Mr Gopi said India imports about 60% of its LPG consumption, out of which about 90% transits through the Strait of Hormuz. He said the Government has undertaken a series of proactive measures to ensure stability in LPG supplies. These include prioritization of domestic LPG consumption, diversification of import sources, dynamic stock management and inter-regional allocation to address localized shortages. The Minister said the government has enhanced allocation of commercial LPG to States by an additional 20 per cent, taking the total allocation to 70% of the pre-crisis level.
