Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Thursday inaugurated the laying of Piped Natural Gas (PNG) pipelines in lady Hardinge Medical College colony near Panchkuian Road in New Delhi.
Speaking on the occasion, Dikshit stated that the PNG supply is a continuous source for the kitchens; it is safer and cheaper than lPG. The supply of PNG is reliable and hassle-free as it rules out the wait for gas cylinders.
She expressed hope that the supply would be started at the earliest as the task of laying pipelines is being taken up on a war footing. She further said that the Delhi Government has taken a large number of steps to make the lives of the citizens of New Delhi area a little more comfortable.
In the evening, Dikshit released a booklet on Easy home Ayurvedic remedies through herbal plants. The booklet has been jointly brought out by Ch Brahm Prakash Ayurved Charak Sansthan, Khera Dabar and Delhi Parks and the Garden Society under Department of Environment.
The booklet is useful as well as comprehensive as it disseminates medicinal characteristics of a large number of herbal plants which could be grown in the courtyard, balcony or even on the roof. Dikshit described this as a constructive step towards making Delhi a healthy city.
