Interestingly, 5,600 LPG customers have migrated directly to PNG in the last three days.

Black market and hoarding

To prevent this, the central government has written a strict letter to all the states. Currently, Control Rooms have been established in 31 states and Union Territories. Monitoring Committees have been formed in 25 states under the chairmanship of District Magistrates. If anyone is overcharging or hoarding cylinders, direct legal action has been ordered against them.
