A violent scuffle broke out Wednesday morning at the Ashish Indane Gas Agency in the Pipiganj police station area of Gorakhpur when customers waiting for LPG cylinders clashed over queue jumping. Around 9:30 am, tensions flared after a few men allegedly tried to force their way into the long line, triggering an argument that quickly turned into a fistfight. Eyewitnesses said one youth was even knocked to the ground and beaten before police officers present at the spot intervened and separated the groups. Both sides were briefly detained and later released after a stern warning. Authorities said the growing chaos is linked to a severe LPG supply shortage, which has forced thousands of residents to queue up from early morning. With nearly 30,000 registered consumers at the agency and limited cylinder availability, tempers are running high, prompting officials to increase vigilance during distribution. Domestic LPG Production Rises 25% As Govt Directs Supply to Households Amid Middle East Tensions.
