Maha: Sanjay Raut urges PM to generate gas from sewage of Mithi River

Mumbai, March 11 (UNI) Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena Rajya Sabha MP and chief Sena spokesperson, Sanjay Raut, today mockingly urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to set up a gas production unit using sewage in Mumbai's polluted Mithi river, to tide over gas shortage due to the ongoing Iran war.
Speaking to media persons here, Sanjay Raut sarcastically said, “Our Prime Minister Modi is a great research scientist. Several years ago, he had discovered that gas can be produced from sewage in nullahs and drains. Can such a gas production project be established on the banks of the Mithi River in Mumbai based on Modi's concept? Devendra Fadnavis and the Mayor of Mumbai should invite Narendra Modi to inaugurate it. Taking inspiration from that, many such industries can be set up all over the country.”
“By Modi's grace, we can easily overcome the gas shortage caused by the war. He must inaugurate the first such gas unit on the Mithi River in Mumbai. The Shiv Sena is always ready to arrange the pipes required for the project. Also, if any subsidy is required for this project, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis should approve it,” Sanjay Raut said, targeting Prime Minister Modi.
