Govt to give Rs 35,000 crore LPG subsidy to OMCs

The Indian government has allocated Rs 35,000 crore in LPG subsidies to oil marketing companies (OMCs) to help mitigate the rising cost of cooking gas. This move is aimed at ensuring the affordability of LPG for domestic consumers, particularly in rural areas. The subsidy will reduce the financial burden on households and help maintain the government’s focus on providing essential services to the public. The decision to offer this support also underscores the government's commitment to tackling inflation and improving the standard of living for millions of citizens.
