&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to give cash instead of subsidized kerosene to BPL families, a move aimed at controlling widespread pilferage of the fuel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal put forth by chief minister Sheila Dikshit, cash equivalent of the monthly kerosene subsidy will be directly transferred to the bank account of the female head of the family. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A BPL family is likely to get around Rs 400 every month instead of subsidized kerosene, if the proposal originally mooted by the Planning Commission comes through. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The city government is currently holding discussions with the ministry of oil and natural gas and a final decision on the issue is expected next month. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon,&amp;quot; a Delhi government official said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues,&amp;quot; he said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to a study by National Council of Applied Economic Research, nearly half of the kerosene supplied through PDS in Delhi found its way into the black market. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
State-run oil companies are losing around Rs 28 a litre of kerosene for selling it below the imported cost. &lt;br /&gt;
As part of its efforts to streamline the PDS system, the city government had last year started the process of issuing bio-metric BPL cards. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government had also found at least 18,000 bogus ration cards in the capital last year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While presenting the Union Budget earlier this year, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee had said the government would move towards direct transfer of cash subsidy in a phased manner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A task force headed by UIDAI chairman Nandan Nilekani is working out the modalities for the proposed system of direct transfer of subsidy for kerosene, LPG and fertilisers. &lt;br /&gt;

Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to give cash instead of subsidized kerosene to BPL families, a move aimed at controlling widespread pilferage of the fuel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal put forth by chief minister Sheila Dikshit, cash equivalent of the monthly kerosene subsidy will be directly transferred to the bank account of the female head of the family. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A BPL family is likely to get around Rs 400 every month instead of subsidized kerosene, if the proposal originally mooted by the Planning Commission comes through. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The city government is currently holding discussions with the ministry of oil and natural gas and a final decision on the issue is expected next month. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon,&amp;quot; a Delhi government official said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues,&amp;quot; he said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

As part of its efforts to streamline the PDS system, the city government had last year started the process of issuing bio-metric BPL cards. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government had also found at least 18,000 bogus ration cards in the capital last year. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While presenting the Union Budget earlier this year, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee had said the government would move towards direct transfer of cash subsidy in a phased manner. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A task force headed by UIDAI chairman Nandan Nilekani is working out the modalities for the proposed system of direct transfer of subsidy for kerosene, LPG and fertilisers. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to give cash instead of subsidized kerosene to BPL families, a move aimed at controlling widespread pilferage of the fuel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal put forth by chief minister Sheila Dikshit, cash equivalent of the monthly kerosene subsidy will be directly transferred to the bank account of the female head of the family. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A BPL family is likely to get around Rs 400 every month instead of subsidized kerosene, if the proposal originally mooted by the Planning Commission comes through. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The city government is currently holding discussions with the ministry of oil and natural gas and a final decision on the issue is expected next month. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon,&amp;quot; a Delhi government official said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues,&amp;quot; he said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to a study by National Council of Applied Economic Research, nearly half of the kerosene supplied through PDS in Delhi found its way into the black market. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
State-run oil companies are losing around Rs 28 a litre of kerosene for selling it below the imported cost. &lt;br /&gt;
As part of its efforts to streamline the PDS system, the city government had last year started the process of issuing bio-metric BPL cards. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government had also found at least 18,000 bogus ration cards in the capital last year. &lt;br /&gt;

Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to give cash instead of subsidized kerosene to BPL families, a move aimed at controlling widespread pilferage of the fuel. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal put forth by chief minister Sheila Dikshit, cash equivalent of the monthly kerosene subsidy will be directly transferred to the bank account of the female head of the family. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A BPL family is likely to get around Rs 400 every month instead of subsidized kerosene, if the proposal originally mooted by the Planning Commission comes through. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The city government is currently holding discussions with the ministry of oil and natural gas and a final decision on the issue is expected next month. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon,&amp;quot; a Delhi government official said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues,&amp;quot; he said. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to a study by National Council of Applied Economic Research, nearly half of the kerosene supplied through PDS in Delhi found its way into the black market. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
State-run oil companies are losing around Rs 28 a litre of kerosene for selling it below the imported cost. &lt;br /&gt;
As part of its efforts to streamline the PDS system, the city government had last year started the process of issuing bio-metric BPL cards. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The government had also found at least 18,000 bogus ration cards in the capital last year. &lt;br /&gt;

<br />
Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. <br />
<br />
The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. <br />
<br />
&quot;Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon,&quot; a Delhi government official said. <br />
<br />
He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. <br />
<br />
As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. <br />
<br />
Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. <br />
<br />
&quot;There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues,&quot; he said. <br />
<br />
According to a study by National Council of Applied Economic Research, nearly half of the kerosene supplied through PDS in Delhi found its way into the black market. <br />
<br />
State-run oil companies are losing around Rs 28 a litre of kerosene for selling it below the imported cost. <br />
As part of its efforts to streamline the PDS system, the city government had last year started the process of issuing bio-metric BPL cards. <br />
<br />
The government had also found at least 18,000 bogus ration cards in the capital last year. <br />
<br />
While presenting the Union Budget earlier this year, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee had said the government would move towards direct transfer of cash subsidy in a phased manner. <br />
<br />
A task force headed by UIDAI chairman Nandan Nilekani is working out the modalities for the proposed system of direct transfer of subsidy for kerosene, LPG and fertilisers. <br />

Cash for kerosene instead of subsidy

-PTI   Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to give cash instead of subsidized kerosene to BPL families, a move aimed at controlling widespread pilferage of the fuel. As per the proposal put forth by chief minister Sheila Dikshit, cash equivalent of the monthly kerosene subsidy will be directly transferred to the bank account of the female head of the family. A BPL family is likely to get around Rs 400 every month instead of subsidized kerosene, if the proposal originally mooted by the Planning Commission comes through. The city government is currently holding discussions with the ministry of oil and natural gas and a final decision on the issue is expected next month. Every BPL family in the city is entitled to get 22 litres of kerosene per month at Rs 9 per litre against the market rate of Rs 27 to Rs 30 per litre. The subsidy component of kerosene comes to around Rs 18 per litre. "Discussions are on with the oil and natural gas ministry and we are expecting a final decision on the issue soon," a Delhi government official said. He said that under the scheme, bank accounts of four lakh BPL families will be opened and cash component of the kerosene will be transferred to the beneficiaries on a monthly basis. As per the proposal, government will open bank accounts in the name of the female head of the family as budget of the kitchen is mostly taken care of by her. Food and civil supplies minister Haroon Yusuf said despite their persistent efforts, the department has not been able to stop diversion of kerosene meant for distribution under the PDS system. "There are loopholes in the PDS system. The kerosene meant for the BPL families at times does not reach the beneficiaries. That is why we are trying to evolve a mechanism under which poor families get their dues," he said. According to a study by National Council of Applied Economic Research, nearly half of the kerosene supplied through PDS in Delhi found its way into the black market.
