Tamil Nadu Hotels Warn of Only 1-2 Days of Stock Left 'Commercial LPG Shortage'

Restaurants across Tamil Nadu are staring at a bleak future with existing stock expected to last only for one or two days due to a lack of commercial LPG cylinder supply amid the West Asia conflict, hoteliers said on Tuesday. 

Some of the hotels and restaurants have already cut the number of food items offered in order to reduce the LPG use, officials said. "It is like a second



COVID-19-enforced lockdown for us. 

We are cutting down on the usage of LPG cylinders. We have reduced the number of food items. For Dosa, tea or coffee, the stove should be receiving LPG supply non-stop. 

We have cut the number of items now and are providing food only in limited numbers," the chairman of a popular restaurant chain told PTI on condition of anonymity.
