Gas dealers urge govt to resume distribution through retailers



KATHMANDU: The Gas Dealers Federation of Nepal has urged the government to distribute cooking gas through authorized retailers to ease difficulties faced by consumers.

The federation said consumers are facing unnecessary hardship because gas is currently being distributed through gas industries and designated sales points in different locations. It has called on the government to ensure that consumers can conveniently purchase gas from retailers located near them.

“The decision to distribute gas through industries and various sales points instead of retailers has made the shortage more complicated,” said a statement issued Sunday by federation president Gyaneshwar Aryal.

The federation has also urged concerned authorities to focus on resolving the problems currently affecting the distribution of cooking gas.
