New Delhi, 27 March. Consumers who have started using Piped Natural Gas (PNG) can now surrender their LPG connection at home without visiting the dealer and using only their registered mobile number or LPG ID. Neeraj Mittal, Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, informed about this new facility of the government in the inter-ministerial media briefing on Friday.

In this sequence, the Petroleum Ministry has launched a new digital platform, ‘MyPNG-D Portal’ to make it easier for PNG users to surrender their LPG connections online.
Sharing this update, Mittal said that consumers who have already started using PNG no longer need to visit LPG dealers to surrender their connection. Now this process can be completed at home using the registered mobile number or LPG ID.
Neeraj Mittal said that PNG consumers can surrender LPG connection sitting at home. You don’t need to go to the dealership. All you need is your registered mobile number or LPG ID.
The move is aimed at simplifying the process and encouraging more consumers to voluntarily give up their LPG connections, so that these connections can be made available to households that do not yet have PNG facilities.
He said that within a day of the launch of the portal, 1,797 consumers have surrendered their LPG connections. He thanked these users for their participation and urged more people to come forward and support this initiative. He said that you should also surrender your LPG connection and help those who do not have access to PNG.
The government believes that such steps will help in increasing access to clean cooking fuel and ensure better distribution of LPG connections, especially to those who are still dependent on traditional fuel sources.
