Mumbai: The black market and shortage of fuel and gas cylinders have now become common in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly. The people are worried about the critical condition of fuel due to the Iran-Israel-America war. In the Legislative Assembly, Minister for Food and Civil Supplies Chhagan Bhujbal made it clear that there is no need to worry about the gas crisis and shortage because the Central Government has claimed that it has gas and fuel stocks available with it, so no one needs to stand in queues or buy fuel or gas from black marketing. The government is strict on the black market of gas and action is also underway. The state is currently facing fuel shortage, there is a shortage of cylinders. Speaking in this context, Food and Civil Supplies Minister Chhagan Bhujbal gave important information in the legislature. Gas supply is a central issue, and the Center has said that they have sufficient stocks of LPG and PNG. Therefore, there is no reason to worry. Therefore, there is no reason to be worried, do not stand in queues anywhere and do not black market gas. Committees of each district collector, SP and other officers have been appointed. 2129 checks have been done so far. 1208 gas cylinders have been seized through these operations so far. Goods worth Rs 33,66,411 have been seized so far. A total of 23 cases have been registered in this matter and 18 people have been arrested. Bhujbal said that last month the price of a gas cylinder was Rs 852.50. Now it has increased to Rs 912.50. Commercial cylinders have increased from Rs 1720.50 to Rs 1835. This morning I spoke to representatives of major gas distribution companies, DPCL, HPCL, IOCL, some of which are big companies. They said that the daily production of LPG has been increased from 9,000 metric tons to 11,000 metric tons. If there is any problem, work is also underway to remove them. Companies have orders from the central government, and some institutions have been given priority for gas supply, in which hospitals have been given 100 percent priority.

Educational institutions and public services have also been given 100 percent priority. Bhujbal has said that 70 percent priority has been given to gift shops related to railways, aviation and defense sectors, and if gas remains, 50 percent gas will be provided to the pharmaceutical industry and 50 percent to seed processing. Meanwhile, the state is currently facing gas shortage, and the government has now decided on a way to resolve it. As an alternative to gas cylinders and fuel, Bhujbal said that one way is kerosene. We have kerosene reserves available. A few years ago, the Nagpur High Court had said that if you have the Ujjala Gas Scheme, you will not need kerosene. Therefore, despite having kerosene, we were not providing it. But now we have told the High Court that the current situation is difficult, so it is necessary to provide kerosene for public consumption. This kerosene will now be provided to kerosene dealers for distribution. We will also provide kerosene at the pumps of IOCL, BPCL, HPCL companies.
