NEW DELHI: Delhi Lieutenant Governor (L-G) VK Saxena on Thursday launched a domestic piped natural gas (PNG) facility in Qutabgarh village, the first-ever such installation in rural Delhi, Raj Niwas officials said.
The move would provide unprecedented impetus to the development of hitherto neglected villages in Delhi, they added. This also marks the first venture of the Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) in Delhi’s rural areas, which was until now confined to select urban residential colonies. This paves the way for extension of PNG pipelines and services to other urbanised villages in Delhi as well, the officials said.
