Recently my state government released this new policy as a conservative and "pain in the neck " policy, "The Rationed Cooking Gas" . Well for some of my readers who are not in India, you see mostly every one in India prefers LPG over any other source of fuel for cooking. But, assuming that there is a huge depletion of natural gas cylinders per household per year. Which means, at the normal amount of 9-12$ (US) - or 300 - 350 Rs per cylinder filled with LPG of 14.1 kg, would cost double after the four cylinders. My grandmother is absolutely furious about it. She, has been cooking since her teens find it impossible to manage with this situation. If this woman who cooks only for her husband, cannot manage how would a mother of two with her family survive this "day light robbery" she asks.
Well, even i was irritated at this news. But thought i could get your comments on this. Be free to comment of what you think of this situation. My guesses are that this would start later as there are lesser oil resourses in the world. Got any idea other than electricity (that is unreliable) for cooking heat???
