Speaking at an event in Delhi, the Minister said that government is progressing in the project of Mirai, a car which uses hydrogen as a fuel generated from wastes. He also added that biotechnology’s use could allow the production of Hydrogen at cheaper rate and the ministry has taken the target to produce Hydrogen at a rate of one dollar per kilogram to make India an energy exporting nation.

Mr. Gadkari also spoke about the importance of agriculture in nation building and the vision to make Kisans not only the annyadata but also Urja data, Indhan data and Hydrogen data with the use of stubble to generate bio ethanol. He also urged the private entities to focus on the rural and tribal areas. He expressed concern that too much emphasis on the metro cities is creating an economic disparity in the country.

The Minister reiterated that the government is working to make India the fifth largest economy in the world and achieve the 5 trillion economy mark.
