According to the video, the usual sales of the inductions, which remained 2-3 every day, have now increased to more than 100 in just two days. The reason for the significant rise in sales is the fear among the citizens of Vizag to prepare for the possible LPG crisis, as the reports of LPG shortage continue to spread.
