  • PM Modi Banks on BPCL Kochi to Lead Petro-Chem
    NATIONAL PM Modi banks on BPCL Kochi to lead petro‐chem revolution The PM said the use of CNG as clean fuel is being promoted by expanding the coverage of City Gas Distribution (CGD) network in the country. Expressing his desire that BPCL‐Kochi Refinery leads the petro‐chemical revolution in South India and supports the growing needs of a new India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said it was the Central government’s endeavour to see that petro‐chemicals, most of which are being imported now, are manufactured in the country itself. Dedicating the `16,504‐crore Integrated Refinery Expansion Project (IREP) of BPCL here on Sunday, the PM also listed out many steps by the government, which have succeeded in giving the right results. Modi said the Ujjwala Yojana has brought cheers to many. “While nearly six crore LPG connections have reached the households of the poorest of the poor since May 2016, more than 23 crore LPG consumers have joined the Pahal scheme. The transparency in the scheme has helped in identifying ghost accounts, multiple accounts and inactive accounts. Over 1 crore customers have given up LPG subsidies under ‘Give it up’ initiative,” he said. From the same venue, Modi also laid the foundation stone for Petrochemical Complex, and inaugurated Mounded Storage Vessel at IOCL LPG bottling plant, Kochi, and laid the foundation stone for Skill Development Institute at Ettumanoor. IREP will be a modern expansion complex and transform Kochi refinery into the largest PSU refinery in India with world‐class standards. It will be equipped for the production of cleaner fuels for India.
