: The Union government is committed to ensure that LPG connections are provided to all BPL families in the country, Minister of state for Drinking Water and Sanitation Ramesh Jigajinagi said Friday.
He was speaking after handing over LPG connections to over 40 benefeciaries under the 'Pradhan Mantri Ujwal Yojana' (PMUY) at a convention of beneficiaries held at the BC road here.
He congratulated everyone who put in their effort to make the scheme a grand success across the country by releasing more than six crore connections in the last four and a half years,"thereby making kitchens free from smoke and pollution."
