Mehsana : After Vyachakurahalli village in Karnataka was declared the country’s first “smokeless village”, a tiny hamlet called Govindpura has become the first “smokeless village” of Gujarat, a state where over 63 lakh homes still use age-old sources of fuel like crop residue, firewood and cow-dung cakes, as fuel used for cooking.
The panchayat development officer of Govindpura village, Waghji Desai, gave a letter certifying the conversion of all households to LPG to the officials of Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOC), which is the only supplier of LPG cylinders to this village and got the “smokeless” tag after all the residents shifted to LPG from traditional sources of fuel, like firewood and kerosene that they used in their kitchens. –
