Government Initiatives to Enhance LPG Consumption Among PMUY Beneficiaries
The Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas has implemented various measures to promote better LPG consumption among beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY). Launched in 2016, PMUY aims to provide deposit-free LPG connections to women from poor households. The government has achieved significant milestones in connection releases and has introduced targeted subsidies to make LPG more affordable. Awareness programs and initiatives like LPG Panchayats have been established to encourage sustained usage. The scheme has positively impacted rural households by improving health, reducing environmental degradation, and enhancing economic productivity.
