My heartfelt gratitude to PM Sh @narendramodi Ji for wearing the jacket made from fabric using recycled PET bottles! Truly exemplifies his leadership for #LiFE Movement - India led global mass movement to nudge individual & community action to protect & preserve environment 🍀

For public policy intervention which is seeking behavioural change in cooking preferences, fact that just 10% of consumers have not taken refills in a particular year means that 90% have actually taken atleast 1 refill, is not its failure but a testimony to a resounding success.
506
This scheme has brought out millions of mothers and sisters out from the smoke-filled kitchens and freed them from the drudgery of collecting biomass and firewood.
507
Modi Govt also gave 3 free Ujjwala refills to all beneficiaries during COVID.
508
As for refilling Ujjwala cylinders, the Hon’ble MP needs to know that average consumption of Ujjwala beneficiaries which started with a little less than 3 cylinders in a year has steadily increased to 3.68 cylinders in 2021-22.
509
So, number of 55,000 connections used in speech of Hon’ble President is actually conservative. Political parties who thrived in an era of control, shortages & deficit perhaps cannot fathom that LPG connection which was kept a luxury till 2013-14, is available for the asking.
510
If you average it for last 8.75 years & 365 days a year (although connections are only given on about 310 working days a year), average number of connections per day is more than 60,000 connections per day.
511
The Hon’ble MP Pinaki Misra @OfPinaki Ji needs to be reminded of the following:
Since 2014, Public sector OMCs have given out more than 19 Crore (19.37 cr between Apr 14 and Dec 22) LPG connections.

The energy within lights up the tree of life!
Little exercise always comes in handy on a long day; all the more special when the energy you burn is used to generate green & clean electricity⚡️to light up the great Banyan tree at Digital Experience Centre at @IndiaEnergyWeek

In my interaction on @CNBC I have once again reiterated that in order to meet the demands of our domestic energy consumers, India will source crude from wherever it has to & on beneficial terms.

#AMER has always been a meaningful platform for producers, consumers & International Organizations to join & debate energy issues of Asian & global energy sector. Our interaction & takeaways today’s discussion will have a direct bearing on our tomorrow & future generations.

21st Century belongs to Asia, & this is being vindicated in the post-pandemic energy sector. Asian economies have not only managed to bounce back fastest from impacts of the Pandemic but have also made significant progress toward clean energy.
