Finance minister Arun Jaitley said that who will be entitled to the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), or cooking gas, subsidy is the next big decision the government needs to take.
He said The next important decision India will have to take is whether people like me... (are) entitled to get our LPG subsidized, he said. I think the sooner we are able to take these decisions as to who is entitled to these subsidies, and of course some people would be, the better it would be for our system. These decisions are all on our agenda.
At present, Indian households are entitled to 12 subsidized cooking gas cylinders in a year.
