May 2016, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MOPNG), introduced the â€˜Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojanaâ€™ (PMUY) as a
flagship scheme with an objective to make clean cooking fuel such as LPG available to the rural and deprived households which were
otherwise using traditional cooking fuels such as firewood, coal, cow-dung cakes etc. Usage of traditional cooking fuels had detrimental
impacts on the health of rural women as well as on the environment.The scheme was launched on 1st May 2016 in Ballia, Uttar Pradesh
by Honâ€™ble Prime Minister of India, Shri. Narendra Modiï»¿The target under the scheme was to release 8 Crore LPG Connections to
the deprived households by March 2020.On 7th September 2019, Honâ€™ble Prime Minister of India handed over the 8th Crore LPG
connection in Aurangabad, Maharashtra.The release of 8 Crore LPG connections under the scheme has also helped in increasing the LPG
coverage from 62% on 1st May 2016 to 99.8% as on 1st April 2021.Under the Union Budget for FY 21-22, provision for release of
additional 1 Crore LPG connections under the PMUY scheme has been made. In this phase, special facility has been given to migrant
families.ï»¿ï»¿OkWas this helpful?ShareNews and UpdatesNo new news and updates availableÂ©2024Powered byDigital India
