"Our resources on the planet are not infinite, they are limited. If we engage in reckless exploitation then we are depriving our future generations what is there to do. Thankfully, innovation and research have made available to us alternative sources, renewal sources. In the G20, the nation took great initiative, and the initiative was on the energy front also but before that also, we could galvanize, catalyze the International Solar Alliance. It is headquartered in the National Capital Region, countries with more than 100 are its members. Now I find accessibility and adaptability of renewable energy in villages," said Jagdeep Dhankhar, Vice President of India.

"I invite your attention in particular to Article 51A. It is just not constitutional guidance. It has to be a way of life with us. If we focus on those duties, energy conservation will be one of them. Equitable growth will be another and these things, these duties are to be performed. They only require a positive mindset and an attitude," added Dhankhar. 

"We express our gratitude to the Government of India for recognizing our efforts, which motivates us to further enhance our contribution toward environmental sustainability and Energy conservation. We remain dedicated to advancing energy-efficient practices and support national goals in energy conservation," said Ankit Patel, Executive Director, Bodal Chemicals Limited.
