The government on Tuesday said that there was no shortage of LPG and LNG in the country and that more supplies were coming from other countries.Also, crude oil supplies from transit routes other than the now shut Strait of Hormuz, were being constantly explored and 70 per cent crude was now coming from non-Strait of Hormuz routes.About ten days ago when the West Asia conflict began, India was importing 55 per cent of crude from the Hormuz route which has now been diversified.On the domestic LPG and LNG supplies, too, the government said there was no cause for panic at any level.”Crude oil prices have come down from 100 per barrel yesterday to 87 per barrel today on account of release of strategic stocks by some entities. There will be no rise in the prices of petrol and diesel at the retail level. On LPG issue, once we found out that  pre-bookings had started, we issued orders to regulate domestic supplies and prioritise sectors like domestic consumers, fertilisers, tea industry and commercial establishments. There should be no doubt that if a choice is between domestic and commercial supply, the former will be our priority,” a senior government source said referring to the natural gas supply control order issued this morning under sub section 3 of the Essential Commodities Act 1955 which allows the government to regulate the production and supply of essential commodities.Government said LPG supplies were coming from many countries now, and India was best prepared than at any other time if history to handle the global energy crisis such as the one that unfolded recently.”There was a crisis, but there is no crisis anymore,” said a source.Petroleum ministry officials added that none of India’s LPG distributors were running dry.Also, the number of days by when a booked cylinder will be available remains 2.5 days provided the refill has been ordered after 25 days in line with the refill rules issued yesterday, said sources.The sources added that government had formed a three-member committee headed by executive directors of IOC, BPCL and HPCL to engage hotel associations and restaurant owners about their concerns. Sources added that commercial establishments use induction mechanisms and not LPG cylinders.
