The government reduces the number of subsidised LPG cylinders provided under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (Ujjwala) scheme. Multiple outlets report that the entitlement for beneficiaries is cut from nine subsidised cylinders per year to four annually. The change affects how many cooking gas cylinders beneficiaries can receive at the subsidised rate within a 12-month period. While the reports focus on the revised cylinder limit, they describe the policy shift as a move to lower subsidised allocations under the scheme. The coverage indicates that Ujjwala beneficiaries will now receive subsidy support for fewer refills than previously allowed. The reports do not, in the provided text, specify additional details such as the start date of the revised limit, the impact on pricing for additional cylinders beyond the subsidised number, or whether there are eligibility or implementation changes beyond the reduced cylinder count. Overall, all sources highlight the same core development: the subsidised cylinder cap for Ujjwala beneficiaries is lowered from nine to four per year.
