A huge amount of Govt. money is spent on subsidy of petroleum products. The Govt. had to spend Rs. 1,39,869 crore on account of subsidy on petroleum products in the year 2013-14. As, the indigenous availability of crude Oil and LPG is limited, these are imported in huge quantities to fulfill the demand of the country.  As Govt. provides domestic LPG and PDS Kerosene on subsidised price, this results in huge subsidy burden on Govt. Due to presence of dual pricing(subsidized and non-subsidized) in LPG and SKO, there is a diversion of subsidized LPG and Kerosene into commercial usage. Although Govt. has taken several initiatives to reduce this diversion of subsidized LPG and PDS Kerosene, public participation is solicited to suggest ways for reducing diversion in LPG and PDS Kerosene.

You are invited to suggest ideas to reduce diversion and the subsidy burden on account of LPG and Kerosene.

Respected PM, When the family is given gas for cooking, kerosene need not be given even for below poverty line families. Mischief develops from here only.

Respected PM, Frequent inspections must be made by concerned authorities on hotels. Most of them use domestic cilinder instead commercial gas cylinder.

The current policy that those accounts are suspended who do not order LPG for 6 months is a very bad policy. This encourages wastage and causes undue disadvantage to customers

Induction cookers are a new technology to cook food using electricity through heat induction technology. Electricity can be generated from renewables and nuclear to cut down dependency on petroleum. Utensils used on induction should be subsidized. This technology will do away with need of LPG

There is no need to provide kerosene to those who have LPG connection. Since this kerosene is black marketed to petrol pumps where it is mixed with diesel and petrol. Second thing LPG subsidised cylinder shoul be regulated up to 9 only. This will stop the black marketting of LPG cylinders. LPG connection and bank account of every citizen should be connected to aadhar card. At present many families have more than 1 LPG connection, which is used for commercial purpose.
