The Maharashtra government on Friday directed city gas distribution companies to operationalise 24×7 helplines and increase the number of centres to accept applications for piped natural gas (PNG) connections.
A Government Resolution (GR), issued by the food and civil supplies department against the backdrop of the West Asia conflict and its impact on global energy supply chains, asked companies to expand outreach and infrastructure to ensure wider PNG coverage across the state.
The GR said disruptions in global energy supply have affected petroleum product availability, leading to constraints in LPG supply, and emphasised the need to accelerate PNG connections as a short-term mitigation measure.
