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.

Diesel has to be subsidised to curb inflation or price rise. However, the rich misuse this by buying diesel cars which also cause lot of pollution. To tackle this issue, the GOI may remove subsidy on diesel for all vehicles except trucks. So, there would be two prices for Diesel, one for trucks and another for the other diesel vehicles. While trucks would get diesel at subsidised price, other vehicles would not.

LPG subsidy of all irresponsible citizens who do not vote during elections should be forfeited. This move will be benefit in both ways - saving LPG subsidy expenses and increase in voting percentage.

Respected sir, I have an opinion for reduce the subsidy of petroleum products. 1.) First we have to direct that all the peoples are submit their vehicles details along with Proper I.D. cards (Like Aadhar, passport etc..) 2.) Then we can issue a fuel card or link the details with another card. (Like Aadhar) 3.) There after we can fix the petrol allowance to every vehicle. For example: Two wheeler - only 5 ltr petrol in subsidy rate For 1 month No subsidy for another vehicles

Respected sir I can give a suggestion. Why not the goverment introduce a bill to make petroleum a tax free product. While importing crude oil a huge amount of customs duty is imposed. This increases market price of every crude product which in turn cannot be afforded by the common man. Then subsidy is given by the goverment,when the real cause of price hike is goverment itself. Think wisely govern well.

यह कैसा अन्याय है कि जिस विभाग को भारत सरकार ने नि:शक्जनों के कल्याण, पुनर्वास, रोजगार प्रदान करने का दायित्व सौंपा हैं वही विभाग नि:क्तजन कर्मचारी को बेरोजगार कर रहा है। बिना किसी पूर्व सूचना के जिला पंचायत देवास म.प्र. के उपसंचालक सामाजिक न्याय एवं नि:शक्त कल्याण विभाग से सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया है, और पुन: बहाल करवाने एवं आर्थिक क्षति का हर्जाना प्रदान करवाने के लिए वही विकलांग दर-दर ठोकरे खां रहा ह

First of all our politicians must behave like a role model in our society. They should make remarkable cutting in their perks and subsidy. I am in belief that if one M.P / M.L.A surrenders his subsidy, then his party workers and their followers will automatically give up their subsidy. All our politicians should be loyal to their Country. They must act as Social Worker not as Emperor.

Jay Hind.Respected Sir, LPG Cylinder Delivery across the Country shall be strictly done by Palm Top and each cylinder must have Number like chases number in all the Vehicles. This will serve many benefits like black marketing of Cylinders will reduce, misuse of Gas Cylinders for anti social activities can be traced. Furthermore, every agency should undertake Gas Stove maintenance periodically which should be included in the charges. This will benefit in fuel efficiency of Gas consumption.
