LPG Refill Booking Interval In Rural Areas Reduced To 25 Days
The Centre announced on Monday that the booking interval for LPG refills will remain the same in both urban and rural areas. As announced by Minister of State Suresh Gopi, the booking interval in rural areas has also been reduced from 45 days to 25 days.
Gopi, who is the Union Minister of State for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Tourism, stated that due to the pressure on LPG supply in the wake of the Middle East conflict, the refill booking interval was 25 days in urban areas and 45 days in rural areas.
“However, in view of the current LPG supply situation improving and the significant reduction in refill backlog, the central government has relaxed this restriction. Now, all domestic LPG consumers, regardless of urban or rural, can book refills at an interval of 25 days,” he wrote further in a Facebook post.
The minister, in his post, also shared a copy of the letter issued by the Petroleum Ministry to the OMCs to immediately implement the change.
