The collaboration also reflects efforts to expand the use of natural gas in residential establishments and strengthen access to gas-based energy infrastructure.
Domestic PNG to Support Cleaner Cooking and Greater Convenience

By facilitating PNG connections at the Karnal staff quarters, the initiative aims to make cleaner cooking fuel more accessible to residents. The expansion of piped gas infrastructure can also support the wider adoption of natural gas for domestic use.
The agreement aligns with broader efforts to encourage cleaner energy consumption and improve the availability of convenient fuel options in residential areas.
