Scenes of distress have emerged from Gorakhpur, where an ongoing LPG shortage has forced residents to spend nights on roads waiting for cooking gas cylinders. Families are sleeping beside empty cylinders under mosquito nets, fearing they may lose their place in the queue. Many consumers claim they have been standing in lines for several days, only to return home empty-handed due to inadequate supply. Despite official assurances that there is no shortage, angry residents continue to question the situation on the ground. Amid scorching heat and difficult conditions, the LPG supply crisis has become a major challenge for households struggling to secure basic cooking fuel.
