for each domestic subsidised cylinder is transferred to their bank account.

In any case subsidy will be deposited in the bank account, and one has to pay full price. Aadhar helps poor to open accounts with zero balance. So the purpose is served.
 
I have submitted the application for linking Aadhar number to my LPG account to the gas dealer on 12th January 2015 and a copy of the Aadhar card to my bank on the same day.Though my Aadhar number is linked to my Bank account, I am unable to find out whether my LPG consumer number has been linked to my bank account to get the subsidy since so far I have not got any advance subsidy amount credited to my account.The gas dealer says I have to wait till I book for a cylinder to check the status.Is this the way to check the status? Or is there any procedure to find out the same?
