Maharashtra govt not ready to share LPG situation despite Speaker's directive: NCP (SP) leader
Mumbai (PTI): NCP (SP) legislature party leader Jayant Patil on Tuesday alleged the Maharashtra government is not willing to discuss and share information on the "widespread shortage" of LPG cylinders despite directions from the assembly speaker.
He alleged the state and Central governments have "completely failed" in handling the gas crisis, and accused the Mahayuti dispensation of trying to shift blame onto the opposition.
"The government should take the people and all political parties into confidence. There is a widespread shortage of LPG, with long queues seen everywhere. This is not a good situation, and the chief minister should have intervened by now," Patil told reporters on the premises of Vidhan Bhavan.
He added that the government is not prepared to share information on the LPG situation and is not willing to discuss the issue in the assembly.
The former minister said the "double engine" government is shirking its responsibility to resolve the crisis.
Referring to international developments, he said celebrations over ships arriving in the country overlooked the fact that many such shipments were needed daily, and claimed that strained ties with countries like Iran were affecting supplies.
Indian LPG carriers 'Shivalik' and ‘Nanda Devi’ have arrived safely at Mundra and Vadinar ports in Gujarat after safely passing the crucial Strait of Hormuz.
