Govt decides the food you eat

Recently the govt has annonunced limitation of the number of cooking gas cylinders to be given per family as 6 in a year.

Wonder whether the factors like family size, average consumption, seasonal variation (need more in winters) were considered!!

Why only six and not more, May be one cylinder per month may be more convinient for people.

I wonder who will keep track of this limit of six cylinder.

Definitely a matter of concern and food for thought for the ordinary man.
