Chandigarh July 27: The exemption which has lately been given by  Union Environment Ministry to Industrial units running in as many as eight district areas of Haryana coming under National Capital Region, where there is no access to pipe supply of CNG, PNG, and LPG, in getting environmental clearance will now continue.

This was shared by Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Manohar Lal after meeting with the Union Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Sh. Bhupender Yadav in New Delhi today to discuss various issues regarding environmental and ESI hospital of Haryana.

It is pertinent to mention here that Coal and other conventional energy sources would now be replaced with CNG, PNG and LPG in industrial units located in National Capital Region districts.
