Chennai, March 11 -- In the light of the worsening war situation in the West Asia region which has disrupted the LPG supply chain, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure uninterrupted LPG supply for domestic, commercial, and industrial Consumers.

In a Demi-official letter to Mr Modi, he said the continuing war in the Gulf involving Iran and other Gulf countries has drastically disrupted the LPG supply chain to India and the heavy dependence of India on LPG imports from West Asia has exacerbated the situation.

Tamil Nadu has a high domestic demand for LPG (Household connections) at roughly 200 MT per month, while commercial/industrial requirement accounts for another 20 MT per month.
