Idrees Bukhtiyar
Srinagar, May 23: Ahead of Eid-ul-Adha, residents across Kashmir have appealed to LPG gas agencies and authorities to ensure uninterrupted supply and timely delivery of cooking gas cylinders to avoid inconvenience during the festive days.
People from several areas of the valley told Rising Kashmir that any disruption in LPG supply ahead of Eid causes significant hardship, particularly for families preparing for the celebrations and hosting guests.
Residents expressed concern over possible delays in home deliveries due to the increased demand during the festive season. They urged gas agencies to make advance arrangements and streamline distribution so that consumers do not face shortages at the last moment.
“We appeal to the authorities and gas agencies to ensure smooth and timely cylinder deliveries before Eid. Cooking gas is an essential requirement during the festival and any delay creates unnecessary problems for families,” a resident from Srinagar said.
Locals also said that many consumers face long waiting periods during festive occasions and requested the agencies to deploy additional staff and delivery vehicles to meet the rush in demand.
Consumers further urged the administration to monitor the supply process and ensure that black marketing or overcharging does not take place during the Eid rush.
Meanwhile, residents hoped that the concerned departments would take proactive measures to maintain adequate stock and hassle-free distribution across the valley in the coming days.
However, many parts of the valley have complained about the irregular supply of LPG.
