LPG supply to stop where PNG is available: What the new rule means

India’s Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has issued a new rule mandating that LPG supply will be stopped in areas where piped natural gas (PNG) is available. Households that do not switch within three months could lose their LPG connection. The move comes amid ongoing supply disruptions linked to West Asia tensions and bottlenecks in routes like the Strait of Hormuz. By pushing PNG adoption, the government aims to reduce import dependence and prioritise LPG for areas without pipeline access. #PNG #LPG #USAIran
