It seems like with the establishment of the bottling plant at Budhjungnagar, prolonged problem of LPG cooking gas crisis to end soon.
However, once the new gas bottling plant is operational, it will be able to supply refilled LPG cylinder to outside the state also, said sources.
Although Bishalgarh gas bottling plant where 20/22 trucks LPG cylinders per day gets refilled against its installed capacity of 18 bullets, still it fails to meet the need of the people.
Besides, around 13 trucks of LPG cylinders are being imported on daily basis from Silchar to meet the need of the common mass.

Yet it fails to meet the need. This initiative may also curb down the prolonged run black marketing business of LPG.
