Mangalore, Sep 17: If it is it too difficult to take home 17 or 14 kg liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders, now you can opt for smaller ones.

lpgFor the first time in Mangalore, the Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited will soon start distribution of LPG cylinders weighing 5 kg at select petrol bunks in city.

The petrol bunks near Lady Hill Circle, Kodialbail and Falnir have sought license for distribution of 5 kg cylinders, said BPCL Territory Manager (LPG) Dinakara Tonse here on Tuesday.

œOnce licences are issued, the distribution will start,  Mr. Tonse said. The BPCL has been supplying 5 kg cylinders in Mysore.

The 5 kg cylinders cater to the need of IT professionals, BPO employees and other migrant workers who inconvenience getting the regular 14 kg cylinder. This would also provide greater choice and convenience to consumers through market sale of LPG cylinders, he said.
