“We are committed to promoting clean and affordable energy solutions,” said Shri Goutom Chakraborty, CEO of GAIL Gas and Executive Director (CGD) of GAIL.
“The CNG price reduction reflects our dedication to making sustainable transportation accessible, while supporting the government’s initiatives for cleaner air,” he said.
