Kota : After the decision to give subsidy to LPG gas cylinder consumers, gas cylinder distributors in the district have started updating the e-KYC of the consumers. During this time, consumers are worried that for getting e-KYC done, a hose pipe is being given between the cylinder and the gas stove and they are being charged for it. On the other hand, it is also being told that the gas company is doing this from security point of view.
Take the hose pipe, otherwise there will be no e-KYC
On Wednesday, took stock of the gas agency located at Vigyan Nagar and Jawahar Nagar. During this time, a large number of consumers had come to get e-KYC done. At the agency, consumers were being asked to get the hose pipe before getting the e-KYC done. Rs 150 were being charged for this. If consumers do not buy hose pipe, their e-KYC will not be done. In such a situation, consumers were forced to buy hose pipes. Some consumers who came to get e-KYC done said that the hose pipe installed in their cylinder is correct, yet they are being forcibly given money.
It is mandatory to buy
Gas agency employees said that it is mandatory to purchase gas hose pipe while getting e-KYC done. For this, full Rs 150 were taken in MRP. Took money from all the consumers. That’s why I also had to buy.
took it two months ago
I had purchased a new gas pipe from the market only two months ago. Once again I was forced to buy a new pipe without any need. The employees said that the pipe here is good, so you will have to buy it.

no one can be forced
If the gas agency is forcibly giving hose pipes to consumers in the name of e-KYC, then it is wrong. All gas agencies will be investigated in this regard.
