New Delhi, March 30
The central government has decided that kerosene will now be available not only at ration shops but also at petrol pumps. Government oil companies will be allowed to stock and distribute kerosene through designated petrol pumps.
In each district, the state government or Union Territory administration will select up to two petrol pumps where this facility will be provided. These petrol pumps will be able to store up to 5,000 litres of kerosene.
To ensure smooth supply, the government has relaxed Public Distribution System (PDS) rules for 60 days so that kerosene can reach needy families on time. This decision has been taken in view of the ongoing tensions involving the United States, Israel, and Iran.
