He said that regulatory authority over LPG pricing rests primarily with the Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC). Fouzul said the government held meetings involving the Energy Secretary and the BERC chairman to assess the situation, followed by discussions between the Energy Secretary and the LPG Operators Association of Bangladesh. According to the adviser, LPG imports have increased compared to the previous month, making any genuine supply shortage unlikely. However, he stressed that these issues have not affected LPG supply in the current month.
