Mysuru: A programme to distribute free LPG cylinders to the beneficiaries of Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, the Centre’s flagship scheme to provide LPG connections to below-poverty-line households, was held at Kalamandira recently.
Distributing the cylinders, Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha said that all gas agencies should only charge Rs. 560 per cylinder and Rs. 980 per gas stove. “Residents of Mysuru have complained that most gas agencies in the district are charging high for the cylinders and the gas stoves despite the price cap on them. This cannot be tolerated and action will be taken against such agencies,” he warned.
