LPG Shortage Triggers Long Queues Across India Amid Supply Disruptions Several regions across India are facing shortages of LPG cylinders following disruptions in imports linked to tensions in the Middle East. States including Rajasthan, Maharashtra, and Kerala have reported supply gaps since mid-March 2026, leading to long queues and panic buying. In Akola, a former sarpanch, Shankar Rao Shirsat, reportedly collapsed after waiting several hours in extreme heat, highlighting the human impact of the crisis. Authorities have initiated raids against hoarding and black-market activities, seizing large numbers of cylinders. At the same time, officials are increasing imports from alternative suppliers such as the United States and Argentina to stabilize supply. Experts have also addressed viral claims about “water-filled” cylinders, clarifying that LPG naturally exists in liquid form under pressure inside cylinders and converts to gas when released. Officials expect the situation to ease gradually and have advised consumers to avoid panic buying and use official booking channels. #LPGCrisis #IndiaNews #GasShortage #Rajasthan #Maharashtra #Kerala #BreakingNews
