While chairing a meeting with the gas dealers of Jabalpur district on Monday, Collector, Deepak Saxena clarified his priorities to ensure a safe environment for citizens in the city. Hence, he instructed them not to get indulged in illegal gas refilling like activities. Mentioning about the explosion occurred at a scrap unit few days back, he asked everyone to be alert to avoid such untoward incidents in future and stop activities like illegal gas refilling. The Collector instructed to immediately stop illegal gas re-filling in the autos and vehicles loaded with cylinders having efficiency of 3-5 kgs and contribute in city safety. He instructed the gas dealers to give necessary instructions to their workers and hawkers so that such activities can be stopped. He asked all the SDMs and Food Officers to conduct intense checking to take information about the places from where the small cylinders are supplied and re-filled and the people behind this illegal act.

 

In case of proper evidence, they should take action to seize the stuff and other disciplinary actions. Issuing his mobile number 9407083130 for common public, the Collector appealed everyone to immediately register their complaints in this number if they notice the illegal activities of gas re-filling anywhere. He asked the students to be alert while using gas cylinders and asked the gas dealers and concerned officers to help students to ensure their KYC. According to the Collector, to make extra money, few persons fill small cylinders from domestic cylinder, ignoring its pathetic future repercussions. Hence, such system should be rooted up completely.
