President emphasises fossil fuels' role in India's energy mix

In a nuanced perspective on India's energy landscape, Droupadi Murmu, President emphasised the essential role of fossil fuel-based energy alongside renewable sources. Acknowledging the need for a diversified energy mix, the President highlighted the importance of maintaining a balanced approach to meet the nation's growing energy demands.

The President's remarks underscore the pragmatic approach India is adopting, recognizing the immediate reliance on fossil fuels while simultaneously promoting the transition to renewable energy. The coexistence of conventional and green energy sources is seen as crucial for ensuring energy security and meeting the demands of a rapidly developing nation.

While India is committed to expanding its renewable energy capacity and reducing carbon emissions, the President's statement reflects the pragmatic acknowledgment of the current energy realities. Fossil fuels remain a significant contributor to India's energy needs, particularly in industries where alternatives are still evolving or face infrastructural challenges.

The balancing act articulated by the President aligns with India's broader energy strategy, aiming for sustainability without compromising the country's economic growth. This nuanced perspective recognizes the transitional nature of India's energy journey and highlights the importance of a gradual and inclusive shift towards cleaner alternatives.
