Ludhiana, March 30, 2026: In a decisive move to ease the on-going LPG situation in the district, Deputy Commissioner Himanshu Jain on Monday directed all Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) including IOC, HPCL, BPCL and LPG gas agencies to immediately restore the supply of Non-Domestic LPG up to 50% of the pre-crisis level.
Presiding over a meeting with representatives of Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) and LPG gas agencies, Jain ordered OMCs and gas agencies to commence Non-Domestic LPG supply with immediate effect, without any further delay. Any complaint in this regard shall be dealt with strictly under the provisions of the Essential Commodities Act. Any instance of diversion or hoarding shall attract registration of an FIR under the relevant provisions of law. Further, all industrial and commercial establishments have been advised to coordinate with gas agencies providing 5 Kg FTL LPG cylinders to their workers/labourers, so that they do not have to wait in lines.
Deputy Commissioner also ordered that industries submitting an undertaking regarding readiness to PNG would be supplied up to 70% of the pre-crisis level of Non-Domestic LPG. They can co-ordinate with DFSC office at number 78890-58297 or GMDIC office at number 98148-65065 for better coordination regarding PNG readiness.
