Maharashtra Food and Civil Supplies Minister Chhagan Bhujbal on Tuesday assured the Legislative Assembly that there is no shortage of LPG; adequate stocks are available

Bhujbal noted that domestic LPG production has been increased from 9,000 metric tonnes to 11,000 metric tonnes per day to maintain steady availability

Domestic LPG cylinder prices have increased by Rs 60 to Rs 912.50, while commercial cylinder rates have risen by Rs 114.50 to Rs 1,835 from March 7

Under the Mukhyamantri Annapurna Yojana, around 75 lakh beneficiaries in the state continue to receive three free LPG refills annually
