India report: Government reaffirms that LPG supply is adequate for the next 74 days

India: Long Queues At LPG Distributors Amid LPG Shortage Fears

People stand in a long queue to collect LPG cylinders after information about availability spread at a Bharat Gas agency located at the Mini Stadium in Vikas Nagar on March 12, 2026 in Lucknow, India. Long queues outside gas agencies and panic bookings have been reported in many cities. The situation has been triggered by disruptions in global energy supply linked to the escalating West Asia conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States, which has raised concerns about shipments passing through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical energy route for India’s LPG imports.
