Kathmandu. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has directed the government to adopt all measures to ease the distribution of petroleum products.

The Commission also monitored the Nepal Oil Corporation, the Department of Commerce, Nepal Food Management Company Limited and other depots selling and distributing gas. “From the monitoring and observation, Nepal is mainly dependent on imports for the supply of petroleum products and the raw materials required to be imported for this are being supplied regularly,” the press release said. The facts have been obtained. ”
The NHRC has also drawn the attention of the NHRC to the news reports about the shortage of LPG gas in the Kathmandu Valley for some time due to the situation in the Middle East and the subsequent tension. –RSS
