Beware! Even lid of Cooking gas cylinder closed, gas being leaked!! It’s the reason for explosion!!!
Adulteration has been done in cooking gas cylinders to increase the pressure of gas inside the cylinders.
Due to this, though gas cylinders are sealed off, gas is being leaked from the cylinders. And this is being the reason for the explosions throughout the country.
There has been a demonstration made by Asela Sambath referred to Consumer affairs authority on TV show.
In the above show, Even after the gas cylinder is closed and separated from the cooker, when the cable is kept in basin of water, it was observed air bubbles appear in the water fast and intensively. From that experiment it is proved that air is coming out from the gas cylinder even in it’s off position too.
Hence the minister should look into this problem and take necessary action in order to protect consumers’ safety rather than Government’s image first.
