Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the construction of four compressed bio-gas plants in Assam on October 2, 2024, as part of the Swachhata Hi Seva 2024 programme. The plants are located in Guwahati, Jorhat, Sivasagar, and Tinsukia. This initiative aims to promote sustainable energy and reduce pollution. Oil India Ltd, in collaboration with the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, plans to establish a total of 25 CBG plants by 2024-25. This project will contribute to Assam's transition to cleaner energy and provide an alternative source of income for farmers.
