Litro Gas Lanka Limited has announced plans to release 350,000 gas cylinders to the market over the next three days.

The company stated that the vessel CORINTHIAN, carrying 3,900 metric tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), arrived in Sri Lanka on 22 October, with unloading beginning that evening.

Litro noted that the shipment would support uninterrupted islandwide distribution and urged consumers to avoid unnecessary panic buying and hoarding.
