Oil and Gas is a key primary energy resource, fulfilling about 40% of country’s energy demand. The major sectors of economy which utilize Oil & Gas are Transport, Industry, commercial buildings and agriculture. Our country is currently importing over 75% crude oil to met domestic consumption. Therefore, generating awareness among the consumers about judicious use of petroleum products is a National initiative. The daily consumers can realize that by adopting simple conservation measures they can minimize wastage of fuel in day to day life and save substantial cost.

To promote conservation of petroleum products and environment protection in the country, MOP&NG in the year 1991 took the initiative to celebrate Oil Conservation Week (OCW) every year throughout the country. Encouraged by the tremendous success of campaign, w.e.f. the year 2004, this event is being observed as “Oil & Gas Conservation Fortnight (OGCF). With the involvement of all the Oil & Gas companies, State Govt., Transport Corporations, NGOs, this nation-wide campaign has eventually become very effective tool in creating and spreading awareness among the masses about the importance of conservation of petroleum products in the country.

During this 15 day period, a large number of activities like technical seminars, symposiums, quiz, painting competitions, mass / cycle rallies, marathons, human chain, etc. are arranged for the propagation of Oil and Gas conservation message amongst the major consuming sectors. Every year, the functions and events are held at Delhi, state Capitals, District and towns.

This year also, it is proposed to celebrate this OGCF (2015), from 16th to 31st January; with new / innovative activities connecting various target groups and common people.

PCRA invites suggestions from all citizens about the conservation activities which can result in better outreach and involvement of common consumers so that they develop greater responsibility towards Oil & Gas conservation.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 20th December, 2014.

Promote the idea of home composting to protect our environment. Nature has got its own way of composting. Let us do the same at home. Mix the kitchen waste with dry leaves, add little bit of curd to promote the growth of micro organisms, leave this in a mud pot which has got lot of holes for promoting air circulation so that aerobic bacteria starts growing and your compost is ready within few months. No smell. Your family, your environment and your plants feels good. Please promote this.sasidhar

We must make the process of income tax payment attractive to all. What about providing financial support towards health care for the family of those who pay income tax? The amount that can be routed must be a proportion of the income tax paid by them in their life time. Jai Hind.

The earth is our home. We need to preserve our planet for the future generations. We have installed solar multi crystalline panels (4000 watts) at our home 8 months ago to satisfy our desire to preserve the natural resources. This is more than enough for a small family. The distribution board has to be appropriately designed for optimizing the benefits. This is powerful enough to run most of the equipments.I request our government to provide subsidy towards solar inverters beyond1kw also.

द्रोपदी का चिरहरण हुआ तो महाभारत हुई। आजकल किसी को चिरग्रहण के लिए बोलते हैं तो महाभारत होती है। कहते हैं जैसा देश वैसा भेष। अगर western कंट्री में सूट साड़ी डालोगी सबको अजीब लगेगा। इसी प्रकार अगर भारत में नंगी घुमोगी या स्कर्ट में घुमोगी तो सबको अजीब लगेगा। और कुछ लोग आपको वेश्या समझेंगे क्योंकी भारत में वेश्या ऐसे कपडे डालती हैं। अब समस्या ये है की कपडे भी ऐसे डालने हैं और अपने आपको वेश्या भी नहीं कहलवाना। अगर कोई औरत मरी होती तो सब कहते की रेप हुआ।। अब एक आदमी मरा है तो सब चुप हैं।

मोदी जी नमस्ते please एक लिंक भेज रहा हूँ। उसको खोल कर देखिये।। अगर कोई औरत मरी होती तो सब कहते की रेप हुआ।। अब एक आदमी मरा है तो सब चुप हैं। इसकी कातिल औरत को सजा होनी चाहिए। दिल्ली में आदमी safe नहीं हैं । आदमियों को आवाज उठानी चाहिए http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/newdelhi/teen-s-hacked-headless-body-found-in-s-delhi/article1-1295718.aspx

it is better to abolish practice of giving conveyance allowances in metro cities. Instead bus passes may be issued to the staff to encourage them to use public transport. We should also encourage peoples to use bicycles inplace of cars and two wheelers. the sale of diesel cars shall be discouraged by imposing high environmental taxas these are the most polluting vehicles.

In metro cities, add 10,000 new buses (half of them AC) and provide timely service with excellent connectivity. No standees in AC buses. 2 running personal cars consume area on road equal to 1 bus, but carry only 4 people at peak hours against 40 in a bus, ie 10 times road space. They add to traffic troubles, wasted fuel and added pollution. Car owners prefer outsourcing their driving effort if excellent service is available. Have peak-hour peak-direction surcharge for AC buses to make viable.
