Will the Minister of PETROLEUM
AND NATURAL GAS be pleased to state:-
(a) whether the Union Government fixes the quota of
petroleum products for the States;
(b) if so, the norms/criteria adopted therefor; and
(c) the quota of petroleum products has been fixed
by the Union Government for each State for the year
2006-07, product-wise?
ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF PETROLEUM &
NATURAL GAS (SHRI DINSHA PATEL)
(a) to (c): There is no State-wise quota fixed by
the Government for the allocation of petroleum
products except for PDS kerosene. PDS kerosene has
been allocated to the States/UTs on a historical
basis. In accordance with the policy adopted by the
Government of India in 2000, Kerosene (SKO)
allocation for distribution under the Public
Distribution System (PDS) was reduced every year
beginning 2001-02 till 2003-04, taking into account
the number of LPG connections released in each
State/Union Territory. While the initial allotment
for 2004-05 was based on the criteria adopted
hitherto, additional allocations were made during
the year to meet urgent emergent demand. For the
year 2005-06, allocations have been maintained at
the level of 2004-05, including additional
allocations made during that year. For the 1st
quarter and 2nd quarter of 2006-07, allocations have
been maintained at the level of 2005-06. The
State-wise allocation of PDS kerosene for the 1st
and 2nd quarter (April to September) of 2006-07 is
at Annex `A`.
