State Owned Syndicate In Nepal Steps Up Sale And Distribution Of LPG Gas Following Shortage In Market Ahead Of The Elections
Nepali consumers purchase refilled LPG cylinders from the state syndicate, the Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC), as the cooking gas crunch hits the market ahead of the elections called for February 11, 2026. The state-owned syndicate, Nepal Oil Corporation, begins the sale and distribution of LPG after complaints of cooking gas shortages increase in the market. Consumers report that LPG cylinders are unavailable at authorized dealers. In response, the corporation sets up distribution counters at its head office to ensure immediate supply. Consumers who urgently need refills and are unable to obtain LPG from dealers can bring their empty cylinders to the Teku office for exchange. The corporation urges the public not to follow rumors of a gas shortage, stating that there is no disruption in imports or supply. Officials clarify that customs data show LPG imports take place in line with market demand. (Photo by Subaas Shrestha/NurPhoto)
