Maharashtra government takes action on LPG crisis as supply concerns mount. State has directed oil companies to immediately fix technical glitches in gas booking apps and missed call services to streamline cylinder reservations. Control rooms will be established at state, district, and taluka levels with WhatsApp complaint redressal facilities. With festive season approaching, authorities are prioritizing LPG supply to public institutions including schools and hospitals. Police protection has been assigned to LPG transport vehicles and gas agencies. The directive comes amid broader energy security concerns, as geopolitical tensions in West Asia threaten global oil supplies passing through the Strait of Hormuz, which handles nearly 20 percent of world oil flows.
