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.

It is my experience that so many neighbours/known people in my locality are using more than two cylinders in different names who are either dead or residing far off to avail this facility. After link up with aadhar and crediting the subsidy directly to the a/cs of the holders, this will be reduced to some extent. Thereafter, door to door inspection of the govt officials need to be undertaken in liasion with the concerned distributors so that extra cylinders could be detected

1.Strict usage of regulators More than one will not be issued.Size of regulators which is same for both the users must end.Commercial users must have different fittings and sizes. 2.Surprise checks by IOC/HPC authorities to big functions,hotels & other establishment to catch the culprits 3.Getting undertaking in writing from the large users of Comm.cylinders that penal provisions including debarment may ensue if found otherwise. .

Distribution at dealer level still being manipulated despite booking online. It needs to be foolproof with zero chances of duping genuine customers .

For commercial gas another idea: change the take off connection such that house gas can't be connected. Of course different valve required for connecting to the stove or manifold. To be developed.

For kerosene blue colour was used. Discontinued. Pl restore. If possible, even a deeper colour. For commercial gas the cylinder has same colour as house supply. Here again use different colour or same colour with yellow stripes. Presently only height is different and difficult to recognise that house cyl. Is being used in commercial location

1. Join lpg connections with pan card. 2. After 2 months reduse subsidy for pan numbers having income more then 500000. This will reduse govt loss to a big extent. And opposition can't say anything bec person earning 50000 per month don't need subsidy at all. After that subsidy for remaining can be reduced.

१.LPG cylinder की संख्या १२ की जगह ७ कर देनी कर दीजिए .४ MEMBER वाले परिवार में ३६५ दिन के लिये काफी हें . २.MORE THAN ८ लाख INCOME पर SUBSIDY हटा लेनी चाहिए. ३.कमर्शियल USE पर ACTUAL (सख्ती) से पालन हो . ४. अंत में आप चाह तो २/- MONTH की बढ़ोतरी कर सकते हो.

To make policy of compulsory purchase of non-subsidized LPG to the persons who are having means of sufficient earnings. To demolish the scheme to provide any things in rationing to the people who are not below poverty line. To make strict law with the effective and speedy implementation in case of breach. To encourage use of solar energy.

Aj SHIRDI (MAHARASHTRA) SAI MANDIR me pura khana banane ka kam solar energy ke madhyam se hota hai usi tarah jinka gas consumption jyada hai unko solar energy use karne ke liye protsahit kare taki baki log bhi iska upyog karenge. Solar energy ka istemal jyada ho isliye company ko kam kimat me acche upkaran banane ke liye kahe.Jaise solar power me uski film plates upar lagayi jati hai aur upkaran gharme use hota hai.
