A delegation of the association met with Karnataka Chief Secretary Shalini Rajneesh on Wednesday amid the reported shortage of commercial LPG cylinders. The members requested that a portion of the supply be reallocated for commercial use to ensure kitchens across the city continue functioning smoothly.

Children have to go to school, workers have to go to work, and if there is no food on time, how will people manage their day?" he raised questions.
