The government has now said that it favours a dual pricing system for domestic cooking gas to reduce the burden of subsidies.
"The present subsidy of 150 per cylinder should not be availed by the affluent class. The subsidy needs to be better targeted," Prithviraj Chavan, Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office has said.
