The Delhi High Court on Wednesday (October 14, 2026) asked the Centre, the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board, and public sector oil companies to respond to a plea challenging mandatory biometric Aadhaar authentication for LPG consumers seeking to access subsidised refills at regulated prices.

A bench of Acting Chief Justice Nitin Wasudeo Sambre, and Justice Sanjay Sharma issued notices on the PIL filed by lawyer Pulkit Luthra and granted the respondents two weeks to file their replies. The matter will be heard next on November 18.
