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.

Dear Sir,
You are requested to cut subsidy at Canteen at Sansad Bhavan, All Vidhansabha...Also use commercial cylinders. Kindly ask MPs not to stay at hotel during Parlament session. We have been known that our (tax payers) Rs. 25 crore waste to pay the hotel bill. I am ready to give up all kind of subsidize things...but first you are requested to start from parlament. Hope you can understand the point.

Bio gas can play a vital role in national development and ecological sustainbility. While the job security can also be managed.

Best way to tackle petroleum problems is to actively look for biogas production using domestic waste and its use for domestic cooking and lighting. This will also help as a mode for mass level job generation while the heavy subsidy can also be tackled very easy.
I would like to insist that Government of India should look to impvise role of biogas as mode for mass level job security and restoration of ecological sustainbility.

Even mineral water seal is better than lpg cylinder seal. Modiji please lpg cylinder seal needs urgent change. Please take action as soon as possible. I am posting this representing 1000 of us and hopefully from all the lpg consumers. hope atleast this request is heard by someone high in power. we are counting on you sir.

Dear PM, first of all please cut the subsidy gas connections to all the MPS, MLAs and MLCs. Even for IAS, IPS, IFS and other Indian Service personnal. The approximate count will be around 50K. First pass a GO on this then ask the people to think about giving back subsidy cylinders.

It is true as exhorted by the Hon'ble Prime Minister that people need to voluntarily give up the LPG subsidy when it is possible. One very important aspect is that we often come across various food joints on the main roads in all places openly use the LPG cylinders intended for the domestic use in blatant violation of the set rules. The Oil companies have to not to rely blindly on the distributors'/dealers' honesty in implementing the norms of distribution. They need arrest this pilferation.

The LPG subsidy can be reduced to some extent by making it compulsory for citizens to use PNG connections . In Mumbai for example it has been observed that even though PNG coonections are given in the buildings a high number of flat owners are not taking the PNG connection and still continuing with gas cylinders. Gas supplies for sucg buidings and areas should be completely stopped and citizens should be forced to take the PNG connections. PNG should also be given to Commercial establishments.

1st thing is to PM should try to get oil production in India. So we need not need to buy oil from outside country. This will reduce the taxes. This is one time investment it may be millions and billions Rs investment but for life time. We dont want to pay taxes (LBT, Service, Perquisite,Corporate, Sale, Value Added, Excise Duty, Anti Dumping Duty, Professional, Municipal, Dividend distribution, Entertainment) for everything can u make 1 tax for all. Thanks please do IF YOU CAN.
