Srinagar: The ongoing conflict in West Asia, coupled with failed Indian government policies, has led to a severe LPG crisis in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, with consumers facing acute shortages and unavailability of cooking gas despite advance bookings.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, the hollow assurances of “abundant” fuel stocks by the occupation regime ring hollow as people queue up with empty cylinders, seeking refills.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been waiting for a gas cylinder since March 17, and the delivery agent has switched off his phone,” said Ashfaq Ahmed, a Srinagar resident. “The gas dealer’s office says they’ve given the quota to the delivery person, but I’m still waiting.”<\/p>\n
The situation is dire, with many facing long wait times and unclear delivery schedules. “I’ve booked a cylinder, but there’s no gas,” said Nazir Ahmed Khan, another Srinagar resident. “The home delivery service has been suspended, making it harder for people to get their cylinders.”<\/p>\n
“There’s a huge gap between supply and demand,” said Jagmawan Singh Raina, president of the LPG Federation. “We’re trying to provide normal supply, but the situation is challenging.”<\/p>\n
As Kashmiris struggle to access cooking gas, questions are being raised about the occupation regime’s response to the crisis. With no clear solution in sight, the people of Kashmir are left to suffer the consequences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
