Udupi; Jan 01: Participating in the conference organized jointly by Udupi user’s platform and consumer’s data centre in connection with confusion created over the Aadhar card, on Dec 31, Tuesday in Udupi Board High school’s Janatha Bhavan, Deepak Rai, Deputy General Manager of Indian Oil company informed in his address that in future the gas subsidy will be given only to the people, who are economically backward. In this regard, union government is implementing the system for the direct transfer of money. It is a lot easier by Aadhar card, he said.

In order to prevent abuse, mis-usage of the gas subsidy and to reduce the loss of revenue to the exchequer, the central government has set up a task force. According to the guidance given by the task force, three phases of programme will be implemented. In the first phase, the limit of supply of gas cylinders was limited to 9 cylinders. Due to this, the burden of subsidy was reduced to certain extent. In the second phase, subsidy will be paid directly to the customer’s account.

This requires the implementation of a system. That is why, Aadhar card programme is being implemented. In the third phase, the subsidy will be given only to only to economically backward people and subsidy money will directly come only to the account of eligible people. Remaining people’s subsidy money will be suspended. Ineligible people have to pay the full money for the purchase of Gas cylinder. In order to implement this system, Aadhar Card will helps a lot, he said
