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.

All the cylinders can be tracked using RFID(radio frequency identification) technology.Companies like TCS specialize in this and provide such technology for industry.Also handheld debit or credit card readers must be provided to all LPG distributors so that cash generated is reduced.

Every lpg cylinder should be bar coded and linked while delivery is made against their respective aadhar number. At the time of refill delivery, the same should reverified. withe the market rate diving ang coming close to subsidized rate, its high time to stop providing subsidized lpg for those who are paying income taxes.

Sir, the Natural Resources around the globe are depleting at a steep rate. If the human race is fortunate enough than we shall be able to enjoy the Natural Resources after FEW years. It is the duty of every citizen to conserve the Natural Resources so that our future generations can enjoy them for some longer periods. The options are multiple & economical. Simple, safe and economical equipment like SOLAR COOKER, BIO-GAS(from kitchen waste), SOLAR WATER HEATERS for bathing, should be used widely

Like income tax slab, there should be slab for subsidised cylinder slab. People whose monthly salary is 5000 and whose monthly salary is 200000, they are getting the same subsidised cylinder. If we can distribute subsidised cylinder to poor people and nonsubsidised cylinder to rich people, the goverment can partially get rid off from subsidy burden.

Sir, More of Gas distributors are selling LPG to hotels, caterers etc in non subsidized rates on showing subsidized selling due to non controlling on same. it is required to be curb by using one time password to consumer on booking of Gas and it will be collected by distributor at the time of delivery of Gas. also the payment should be collected from /made through bank account which is already linked with connection of all subsidized consumer.

All are not eligible for LPG subsidy. The creamy layer of the Society should come forward voluntarily to give up the LPG Subsidy . It should start with all MPs, MLAs, all individuals who are income Tax assesse. To begin with the PM should come forward with a request to all the MPs and MLAs to become Example by giving up their LPG Subsidy in the interest of the Country's economy and save the Exchequer from Subsidy A Modest beginning may be made Higher Ups in the Society .
