Kelkar Committee

Why Sonia, Mamata, BJP must be forced to heed Kelkar's warning

The Kelkar committee report issues a grim warning: unless the subsidy on fuel, food and fertilizer is cut back to sustainable levels, India will face a crisis worse than the one in 1991.

Hike fuel, food prices in ration shops, Kelkar panel tells govt

The Government has been asked by the Kelkar committee to eliminate various subsidies in phases by hiking prices of LPG, kerosene, diesel and foodgrains in ration shops to deal with the deteriorating fiscal situation.

Cut subsidy, else fiscal deficit will hit 6.1%: Kelkar panel

The Vijay Kelkar Committee, which has been set up by the government to chart a roadmap to fiscal consolidation, has stressed that cutting fuel subsidy is key to any fiscal reform.

Diesel, kerosene, cooking gas may be hiked

The government may take a look at raising the cap on supply of subsidised LPG cylinders to 9 per household.
