Agencies should issue cylinders in 21 days, says Collector Action if consumers are not issued bills THIRUVANANTHAPRAM: District Collector N. Ayyappan has directed LPG distributors to streamline the supply of cylinders and ensure more transparency in their operations. Presiding over an open forum held at the Collectorate here to discuss the problems faced by LPG consumers in the district, he warned of stern action against distributors who resorted to malpractice. Mr. Ayyappan said distribution agencies were instrumental in preventing diversion of LPG cylinders and black marketing. He said the district administration would intensify the raids being carried out to prevent misuse of cylinders. “Hundreds of cylinders were seized in the raids. Action has been taken against distributors who do not issue bills to consumers,” he told the meeting. The Collector said it was the responsibility of agencies to ensure that delivery boys behaved well with consumers. Agencies will have to issue cylinders within a period of 21 days from the date of booking, Mr. Ayyappan said. Representatives of the Indian Oil Corporation and the Bharath Petroleum, the District Supply Officer, Taluk Supply Officer, gas agency owners, consumers and office-bearers of residents associations participated in the open forum.
