Vadodara, November 08 With LPG dealers across the state having resolved to go on an indefinite strike from November 10, the city's Consumer Protection Organisation on Saturday threatened to file a complaint against them under the Essential Commodity Act (ECA).

The dealers are agitating against the introduction of the licensing system by the Gujarat government.

P B Murjani, Managing Director of Consumer Protection Organisation, said: “Any essential commodity including gas and petrol cannot be disconnected without the prior permission of the government. We will ask for monetary compensation for any inconvenience caused to the consumers.”

While collector Vijay Nehra announced on Friday that even with 41 gas agencies on strike, the supply will not be disrupted, Murjani said: “It will be impossible to meet the requirements of the entire city with most of the agencies going on strike. We will help the consumers get compensation.”
