India is arranging crude and LNG supplies from alternative sources with two LNG cargoes on the way, Sujata Sharma, joint secretary in the federal oil ministry, said on Wednesday.
She said that the country's liquefied petroleum gas output has gone up 25% after the recent government order asking refiners to maximise cooking gas production.
