PM Narendra Modi inaugurates 550-tonne capacity Gobar-Dhan Plant in Indore

Highlights:

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated a 550-tonne capacity �Gobar-Dhan (Bio-CNG) Plant� in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, through video conferencing.
This is the biggest Bio-CNG plant in Asia.
It has been set up at a cost of Rs 150 crore.
The gobardhan plant is based on the concept of waste-to-wealth innovation.
Wet urban household waste and waste from cattle and farm is Gobar Dhan.
Lakhs of tonnes of garbage have occupied thousands of acres of land for decades across the country causing air and water pollution, the major reason behind the spread of diseases.
The plant is based on zero-landfill models, which means no rejects would be generated.
