The LAUGFS Gas Company not reducing gas prices in parallel to the state-run LITRO Gas Company would be a serious problem and such a monopoly in the LP Gas industry must not be allowed to exist, said consumer rights activists.
The price of LAUGFS gas must be slashed within a period of one week
After lodging a complaint with the Chairman of the Consumer Affairs Authority (CAA) today (06), President of the Restaurant Owners Association Asela Sampath told media that the price of LAUGFS gas must be slashed within a period of one week, adding that otherwise, every LAUGFS Gas cylinder will be piled up in front of the company.
Sampath emphasised that when the gas price is slashed by LITRO, the relief received by LITRO customers must also be given to LAUGFS customers.
