CHENNAI: Of the 2.2 crore Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) cylinder connections, only 17,000 have been migrated to Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) chairman Dr Anil Kumar Jain hopes the target to convert all the users to PNG is likely to happen by 2030-2031.
Addressing reporters on Sunday, Jain attributed the slow conversion rate in the state to Covid-19 and said the target remains the same. The PNG connections were provided in Tamil Nadu from the year 2019.
