Domestic gas will be supplied only to cities and essential services until the country recovers from the economic crisis, and it has been decided to supply only half of the gas demand in the future, a Litro Gas company official said.

The daily LPG supply was at 80,000 cylinders. With that decision, the gas supply has been reduced to 30,000, he said.

He asserted that only 27% of consumers used gas.

Considering the current situation, the country needs US $ 30 million a month to meet its gas demand and everyone must make a commitment to rebuild the country. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)

Utter chaos. No kerosene oil, power cuts and now limited supply of gas. How does one expect to cook! When a clown moves into the Palace he doesn’t become a King, The Palace becomes a circus. Turkish Proverb. This is what happened to Sri Lanka.

Creating an ARTIFICIAL Demand to increase prices further... why only to CITIES? Others are of differrent mothers? Discrimination !!!

Laughs is as dead as a dodo. Daily requirement of gas is 100,000 cylinders of capacity 12.5 kg. Gas is as essential to the people living in towns and villages as much as it is for the residents of big cities. The closest substitute, kerosene is also in very short supply. How are people to do their cooking? This sordid regime must Go.

Not easy for elderly consumer to carry cylinder in queues. Should arrange method for snr citizen who has no assistant , to obtain supply with some token without standing in queue. Very important.
