Kathmandu. Durganath Dahal, president of Navjivan Paropakar Samaj, who is active in the maintenance of 40 elderly people, said that it is difficult to run the organization due to lack of gas. <\/p>\n
Expressing his problems and pain on social media, he said that 40 parents are finding it difficult to fulfill the responsibility of lighting the stove and their hunger and pain cannot be ignored. <\/p>\n
‘Serious attention of the concerned body’ he further wrote, ‘<\/p>\n
Navjivan Paropakar Samaj has a family of 40 parents in the ashram. When a great festival like Dashain is approaching, even cooking gas is not available in the ashram. Where should I go to find gas when I am unable to walk due to a broken leg? How to light the stove of 40 parents? <\/p>\n
If there is a real shortage of gas, then the government should immediately make alternative arrangements and inform the people. If an artificial shortage has been created, then those involved in black marketing and trying to sell gas for Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,000 by creating artificial shortage should be investigated immediately and strict action should be taken as per the law. “<\/p>\n
No one has the right to harass the general public on the eve of Dashain and black marketeering,” he wrote. The government should pay immediate attention to ensure easy availability of cooking gas especially in the shelters of senior citizens, helpless and destitute people. Chairman Dahal has also demanded that the real situation of gas shortage should be made public. <\/p>\n
“The government should clarify the real situation, make alternative arrangements if necessary, and take effective steps to control artificial scarcity and black marketing.” <\/p>\n
The responsibility of lighting the stove of 40 parents is on my shoulders. How can I ignore their hunger and pain? I humbly but firmly request the concerned authorities to resolve the problem immediately,” he wrote. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
