Bhargav said that during the IMC’s green bond listing ceremony at Bhopal, the CM stated that Indore should be developed as a solar city.

“Indore thinks out of the box. The way Indore has issued green bonds for setting up solar plants. It should find out ways to become a solar city,” Bhargav said quoting the CM.

Bhargav sought to know from the experts about research done so far on solar energy, provisions of solar policy across the country and the way forward.

In the meeting, Bhargav stressed on the need for taking the concept and idea of solar energy to every common man of the city, and give wide publicity to it.
