ऐन गणेशोत्सवातच महामार्गावर सीएनजीचा शॉक, पंपावर मोठ्या रांगा

According to Maharashtra Times, travelers heading from Mumbai and Pune toward the Konkan region for the Ganesh Chaturthi festival are facing significant disruptions due to a shortage of compressed natural gas (CNG). As thousands of residents travel to their hometowns for the annual celebrations, the surge in demand has overwhelmed local fuel infrastructure.

Motorists have reported long queues at CNG stations along major highways, leading to extended wait times and frustration for families traveling during the holiday period. The increased traffic volume, combined with limited supply at refueling points, has created a bottleneck for those relying on CNG-powered vehicles for their journey.

Local authorities and fuel providers have not yet issued a formal statement regarding the supply chain strain, but the situation highlights the ongoing logistical challenges faced by commuters during peak festival seasons in Maharashtra. Travelers are being advised to plan their refueling stops carefully and anticipate potential delays as the holiday travel rush continues.
