LPG cylinder Price: In Rajasthan, domestic gas cylinders are going to be given to families associated with the National Food Security Act from today, September 1, at Rs 450. This decision of the government will benefit about 68 lakh families of the state. The subsidy received on gas cylinders will also come directly into the account. The government has expanded the scheme and now 68 lakh new families of NFSA have been included. This will make gas cylinders available to these families at cheaper prices, which will reduce their kitchen expenses.

This step of the government is also important for the women who manage the kitchen of the house. The state government has issued guidelines for the implementation of the scheme. The full price will have to be paid while taking the cylinder, which is currently Rs 806.50. The government will deposit the remaining amount directly into the consumer’s bank account as subsidy. Thus, the cylinder will cost the consumer only Rs 450.

Now, families linked to NFSA will also get this benefit. With this, lakhs of families of Rajasthan will be able to get cheap LPG cylinders.
