MUMBAI: Vehicular pollution is the main reason for the heavy winter smog and the bad air Mumbaikars are breathing. The number of vehicles per kilometer of road length in the city is 647, a situation the authorities call alarming. Experts say this forces vehicles to drive at speeds from 5 to 15 kmph (not above the third gear) leading to heavy emission of half-burnt gases and fuel. They say a steady speed of 50 kmph is ideal to ensure low emission, but congestion on the city's roads does not permit this.
Residents of the Indian capital, who thought they had conquered air pollution a decade ago, are once again choking on exhaust fumes and dust and New Delhi has regained its status as one of the world’s

Ahmedabad: The Gujarat high court on Thursday directed the Centre to file an affidavit in a week’s time explaining why the court should not take punitive action against responsible persons for noncompliance of its order to supply CNG to Ahmedabad at a rate supplied to Mumbai and Delhi.

Indraprastha Gas, the sole supplier of CNG in Delhi-NCR, has revised the price of CNG in Delhi by R1.55 per kg to R39.90 due to increased input gas price and related taxes. Consumers will have to pay R39.90 per kg in Delhi and R45.10 per kg in the Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad areas. The company had last increased the price in September. “The 4% revision in CNG price would result in an increase of R1.55 per kg in the consumer price of CNG in Delhi and R1.80 per kg in the consumer price of CNG in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad,” the company statement said.
However, experts from the oil and gas industry feel that the move by company would not bring much relief in the present high price situation City gas distribution major Gujarat Gas Company Ltd (GGCL) has decided to focus on domestic suppliers for procurement of LNG after its supply contract with BG gorup subsidiary, BG India Energy Solutions Private Limited (BGIES) expired last month. GGCL used to source re-gasified LNG (RLNG) from BGIES. After British Gas Group sold its stake in GGCL in October, 2012, the company has decided to give preference to domestic suppliers. GGCL has PNG customer base of over 350,000 in three cities of Surat, Ankleshwar and Bharuch. It also has close to 200,000 CNG consumers.
Agartala: Plans are afoot to turn Tripura’s capital into a green city by fitting, within two years, thousands of vehicles running on petrol or diesel with CNG kits and providing city households with piped natural gas connections, a senior official said Wednesday. “While issuing vehicle permits, priority is given to those running on CNG (compressed natural gas).
