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.

Install their Tracking Devices on Special Vigilance Vehicular Machines, Gates of Commercial Bazaars, Entries in Industrial Areas, Highways, Toll-Gates, etc 3). While Gradually try to phase-out & Remove LPG Cylinders, as its a kind of living BOMB & deploy Pipeline Supply 4). Last Idea: How about introducing Renewable Sources of Cooking for masses in Villages (by old Concept of Sanjha Chulaha?

फर्जी गैस कनेक्शन जो उपभोक्ता गैस एजेन्सी में अपने कनेक्सन के लिए कोई भी साक्ष्य यथा आधार कार्ड, पैन कार्ड, बैंक एकाउंट जमा नहीं किया है उनका कनेक्सन रद्द करना चाहिए क्योंकि ये कनेक्सन फर्जी है। ऐसे गैस का उपयोग छोटे तथा 19 किलोग्राम के सिलिन्डर में होता है। यह अवैध है तथा गंभीर दुर्घटना का कारण बनता है।

#LPG 1. Like LED bulb scheme by power ministry, the petroleum ministry should provide copper and large bottom utensils to save LPG consumption. 2. Rationalize the subsidy distribution by providing subsidies according to the household income divided by the number of members. e.g. the income per member for a family of 6 with 3,60,000 with one earning member is 60,000 and such house should get 100% subsidy on all 12 cylinder. Up to 75k income/member = 100%, 76k-125k = 90%, 126k-150k = 80% etc.

The only way to reduce subsidy is to survey the no of members of each family depending on the consumption and accordingly capping system may be introduced.

Distribute the 5kg lpg cylinders only to the job card holders under MNREG scheme having a valid Jandhan Account. The money(deducting the subsidy) can be debited out of their income accumulated in the account under the scheme only. The deduction message should be sent to them in local language. In an average a rural household would consume 10 litres of lpg a month

The top most priority of the Central and State Govt. must be to install Solar Panels on all the Govt. Buildings, Universities, Colleges, Schools, Bus. & Rly. Stations, Air Ports and provide Yellow Solar Panel Box to all Tea Vendors and Breakfast making mobile vendors who are using abundant quantity of Kerosene and LPG. This will not only reduce the use of these two fuel but will also reduce the pollution which is most dangerous issue for human kind. Also, it reduce the cost to the vendors.

Actually being sugarcane rich country,there is no more need of kerocene. We can allways use alcohole as fuel in cooking stove with minor change in design. It is good that we are adding alcohole in petrol(5%),but we can burn alcohole 100%. It will not only make savings in imports but being local product tranportation will also be minimised.

देश जो एलपीजी/केरोसिन/पेट्रोल/डीजल पर सब्सिडि और आयात पर राशि खर्च कर रहा हे उसे गाय के गोबर से बचाया जा सकता हे। गाय के गोबर में मेथन नामक गैस होती हे जो की सस्ती और पर्यावरण के अनुकूल हे। इस का प्रमाण सूप्रीम कोर्ट के जज दावरा 2005 में गोरक्षा केस की सुनवाई के दौरान जज साहब ने मेथन गैस सिलिंडर का उपयोग अपनी गाड़ी में किया और पाया की लागत पेट्रोल और डीजल से सस्ती हे।अत: सरकार से अनुरोध ही की गोबर गैस प्लांट को नेशनल पॉलिसी बनाए और गाँव में प्लांट इस्थापित करे डीएसएच का पैसा बचाए
