The government will take a decision if Laugfs Gas fails to intervene to import and supply LP gas to the consumers, Minister of Trade, Commerce, Food Security and Cooperative Development Wasantha Samarasinghe has said.

He told reporters that there is no shortage of LP gas supplied by Litro Gas.

‘We have two LP gas companies, Litro and Laugf in our country. There is no shortage in Litro gas at the moment. Laugf Gas must explain the reasons for the shortage in Laugf gas in the market. If Laugf Gas fails to intervene to import and supply gas, the government has to take a decision. There is ample stocks with Litro gas.
