- बीएड पास अपर्णा पिछले 3-4 सालों से बेकार पड़ी और फेंकी गई काँच की बोतलों को अपसाइकिल करके खूबसूरत और अनोखे होम डेकॉर प्रोडक्ट्स बना रही हैं। वह जो भी क्रॉफ्ट आइटम बनाती हैं, उसके लिए कोई वेस्ट बोतल ही इस्तेमाल करती हैं। अपसायकल्ड क्रॉफ्ट के प्रति अपने प्यार के चलते उन्होंने पिछले साल एक झील की सफाई भी करवा दी।
- अपर्णा ने शौक-शौक में आर्ट एंड क्रॉफ्ट शुरू किया और फिर जब उनका हुनर निखरता गया तो उन्हें ऑर्डर भी मिलने लगे। तरह-तरह के क्रॉफ्ट ट्राई करने वाली अपर्णा वेस्ट काँच की बोतलों को अपसायकल कर खूबसूरत रूप भी देने लगी। वह मन्रोतुरुत्तु में रहती हैं जो कोल्लम से थोड़ा दूर है और एक टूरिस्ट प्लेस है।
- अपर्णा अंत में बस इतना कहती हैं कि त्यौहारों पर हम तरह-तरह के प्लास्टिक डेकॉर का इस्तेमाल करके सिर्फ अपने घर का वेस्ट बढ़ाते हैं। इससे अच्छा है कि हम थोड़ा-सा वक़्त निकालें और खुद कुछ करने की कोशिश करें। कुछ ऐसा जिससे कि पर्यावरण भी सुरक्षित रहे और हमारा हुनर भी निखरे।

According to the notes, prepared for an oil ministry event on Thursday to showcase India’s CGD (city gas distribution) programme.
- The expansion of CNG and PNG services will also create nearly four lakh direct employment opportunities by 2027. Only 34 GAs (geographical areas, akin to licence areas across districts in a state) in the country had city gas distribution networks till 2014.
- The programme has an estimated investment potential of Rs 90,000 crore. The number of households with PNG connections will rise to over 4 crore from 55 lakh, while the number of CNG stations will go up from 1,838 to 10,000 by 2024. Such a scale of network expansion will need huge quantities of pipes, mechanical and smart meters, PNG regulators, compressors and boosters pumps etc, which will open up opportunities for domestic manufacturing.
