Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) has reduced the price of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) by Rs 244 per 12 kg cylinder.
Now the price of cooking gas is Rs 1,178 for a 12 kg cylinder, which was Rs 1,422 in March.
The new rate was announced at a press conference at the BERC office in Dhaka on Sunday.
The government agency decides the price of LPG. However, it does not seem to be effective everywhere.
When asked about this, BERC Chairman MD Nurul Amin said that they will look into the matter.
