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.

Encouraging free energy from Space Energy Generator by Mr. Paramahamsa Tewari Generation of electrical power from the medium of space, Tewari has built Space Power Generators that operate at over-unity efficiency, thereby showing that the space medium indeed is the source of generation of basic forms of energy. A Breakthrough occurred on Saturday November 23rd, 2014 with a test that yielded an efficiency of 238% at 6 KVA for a 3 phase AC synchronous generator, 50/60 Hz, 240 VAC.

Encouraging solar energy and gobargas plant can be perfect solution for that. Electricity can also be used so that burden on LPG subsidy can be avoided. All MPs and MLAs must have forgone their subsidy.

I have seen a Gobar Gas plant in my village in year 1990, still after 26 years my village has only one Gobar gas plant being used by 2 families only. Why ? I think we know the answer . It is an example of failure of previous governments.

Please provide LPG cylinder free of cost to Kerosene oil user. Kerosene is used only to mix with diesel and petrol in black market.It can save kerosene subsidy as well as clean energy.

Electricity is other way to avoid use of petroleum based products. how to produce electricity. by using non agri lands or government lands for solar or wind generation. Giving subsidy/long term loan with 0% interest/gov partnership with the person who wants to put the above system on his/gov. land privately. keeping startup cost 0 rupees and cutting the installment for long term from his monthly income from solar and wind power it will generate power to drive electric vehicle & cooking.

Sir Pranam, I am Ritik of Varanasi ,I have suggestion regarding fuel use in households. Sir can't we start providing gobar gas cylinders for cooking purpose. The production of gobar gas at end also provide natural manure ,which could be used in agriculture. We could start this production unit in villages as we have lot of cattle there .That would also help poor's in villages to afford it and also in long run save government subsidy.Please reply sir if it is a useful advice

It is really repentance that our government is spending lots of money as subsidy for petroleum products.I suggest an idea to reduce this burden.Our political leaders, MPs and MLAs all over the country should give up their LPG subsidy for setting an example to common people.So that people will come up in huge numbers to leave their subsidies.I hope PM Mr.Modi ji will think about it and will take initiative in this regard. thanks for reading jai hind.

Please start supply like LPG which is now DBTL. This is the only way to stop losses. There is no chance of loss due to diversion. Fixing the Subsidy amount as a fixed figure(ex: Rs 250 per cylinder as fixed subsidy) is also a good Idea because now the price of petroleum products is low.

Sir, 12 LPG is given @subsidies rates to a family now in some cases there are 2 to 10 member in a family. so subsidies LPG should be given on the basis of individual that is as soon as a person attain age of 18 yrs he should be eligible for a LPG connection by his name. Then no of cylinders should be reduced from 12 to 6 on the basis of per individual. payment of cylinder should be made online or by card.
