Recently, the Prime Minister inaugurated India’s first bamboo-based ethanol plant in Golaghat district, Assam. The Prime Minister also laid the foundation stone for a modern polypropylene plant in the same district. The bamboo-based bioethanol plant aims to boost industrial growth, green energy, renewable power, and create opportunities for farmers and youth. A steady supply of bamboo will be ensured with government support for local farmers in cultivation and procurement. Bamboo, previously restricted, is now allowed for industrial use, benefiting tribal communities in Northeast India.
