What is Liquified Petroleum bottled gas?

LPG is prepared by refining petroleum or "wet" natural gas, and is almost entirely derived from fossil fuel sources, being manufactured during the refining of petroleum (crude oil), or extracted from petroleum or natural gas streams as they emerge from the ground. It was first produced in 1910 by Dr. Walter Snelling, and the first commercial products appeared in 1912. It currently provides about 3% of all energy consumed, and burns relatively cleanly with no soot and very few sulfur emissions.

About LPG Subsidy?

The government subsidises 12 cylinders of 14.2 kilogram each per household in a year by directly transferring the subsidy amount to the users' bank accounts


Give Up LPG Subsidy is a campaign that was launched in March 2015 by the Indian government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. It is aimed at motivating LPG users who are able to afford to pay the market price for LPG to voluntarily surrender their LPG subsidy.[1] As of 23 April 2016, 10 million people had voluntarily given up the subsidy.[2] The surrendered subsidy is being redistributed by the government in order to provide cooking gas connections to poor families in rural households free of cost.[3] MaharashtraUttar PradeshKarnatakaDelhi and Tamil Nadu are the top five states to give up the subsidy.[4][5]
