In a social media post, Puri highlighted the achievements under the government's "One Nation, OneGasGrid" plan, calling it the blueprint of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of Bharat.

The minister shared that the country had only 738 CNG stations in 2014. Today, that number has risen to more than 8,150 across the nation, powering buses, autos, and cars with affordable, clean fuel.

By 2030, this network will expand further to over 18,000 stations.
