There is a major crisis on the delivery service of LPG cylinder in India. In many parts of the country, gas delivery workers are preparing for strike, due to which millions of families may face trouble. After all, what is the reason for this strike, and what will be the effect on the common people? Come, let's understand this issue deeply.

Reason for strike: demands of employees

Employees who delivered the LPG cylinder have been raising their voice for their demands for a long time. Their main complaints are- low salary, long work hours, and lack of security measures. Many employees say that their income is not sufficient in this era of inflation. In addition, risk -filled conditions during delivery, such as heavy cylinders and the risk of road accidents, are further enhancing their anxiety. Employees unions have demanded immediate action from the government and gas companies, but no concrete solution has been found yet.

What will be the effect on common people?

If the strike starts, it will have the most impact on the middle class and lower income group families. Restriction of LPG cylinder can resort to alternative fuels, such as wood or kerosene, which is harmful to health and environment. In urban areas, where there is high dependence on gas cylinders, the budget of the kitchen can also be affected. In rural areas already delivery timeliness is a problem, and the strike can further spoil the situation.

Role of government and gas companies

The government and gas companies will have to take immediate steps to avoid this crisis. Some experts believe that this strike can be prevented by listening to the demands of the employees and establishing a dialogue with them. In addition, technical solutions, such as automatic delivery systems or drone delivery, can also be considered to make the delivery process more safe. However, these measures will be effective in the long run.

Suggestions for consumers

Consumers should take some precautions until the situation is clear. Book your gas cylinder in advance and keep an additional cylinder. Also, consider alternative sources of energy, such as induction stove or solar cooker. This will not only help in this crisis, but will also contribute to environmental protection.
