The Minister of State (I/C) for Petroleum & Natural Gas Shri Dharmendra Pradhan informed the Rajya Sabha in a written reply today that no LPG consumer is denied domestic LPG cylinder under the Direct Benefit Transfer for LPG (DBTL) scheme, namely, 'PAHAL' on account of not linking the aadhaar/ bank account to LPG consumer ID.
The time required for linking is dependent on the internal processes of stakeholders such as banks, NPCI etc. and hence the time required to complete linkage cannot be generalized. As on 01.03.2015, 80.6% (approx.) customers have joined PAHAL scheme. The State-wise number of active LPG consumer as on 01.03.2015 yet to join the PAHAL scheme.
OMCs have informed that their LPG distributors endeavor to supply LPG refill normally within seven working days from the date of booking. State/UT-wise pending refill bookings as on 01.03.2015.
