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.

offer only 8 subsidized cylinder. increase the amount of subsidy for fist 4 cylinders.so dt poor ppl who dont have a LPG connection will be encouraged to take new LPG connection. People enjoyig more than 8 are definitely nt so poor that they sud depend on subsidy.Think abt the poor who cant even afford 6.Also govt sud take care/bear of the security deposit amt which is needed 2 b deposited while taking a new connection for poor BPL card holder's family.This will actually benefit the poor people.

many ppl are not using as many as 12 subsidized cylinder.so instead they are selling them at higher price in the market and earning money. PAHAL cant only stop black marketing. Reduce the no of subsidized to stop this and Increase the amt of subsidy so that poor can afford that. #GaribonKiSarkar fir hogi asli #SabkaSathSabka vikas.

Dear Sir, In the August month of 2014 the subsidy was terminated from solar water heating system, it is good , but please make the mandatory use of solar water heater in new building to minimize the use of conventional electricity, make solar parabolic dish cooker mandatory for new LPG connection, as it will reduce the use of LPG as this type of solar cooker can cook food with in 30 to 40 minutes. Make ease of permission from state government for on grid solar power plant for domestic use.

the Best way is to reduce consumption of these. Production and Commercialization of Biogas, Electric cooking should be made viable by creating infrastructure like Gas pipelines connecting villages, cities, creating Market for such, giving tax breaks to GAIL and othe gas co for such actities. Ethanol based Vehicles, Promotion of SOLAR Cookers for large scale cooking like Restaurants, Temples, Canteens, Army etc. Using Agriculture wastes for cooking, SOLAR Water Heaters. etc.
