The Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Shri Nitin Gadkari, inaugurated India’s first private Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facility plant at Nagpur in Maharashtra, on July 11, 2021.
The plant has been set up on Kamptee Road near Nagpur Jabalpur Highway, by Baidyanath Ayurvedic Group, the makers of Ayurvedic medicines.
Once operational, this LNG filling station in Nagpur will be first such facility to operate on commercial basis.
LNG is a clean, pollution-free and cost effective liquid fuel, which is also easy to store and reduces the logistics cost.
