Letters Piped natural gas
This is with reference to "Piped natural gas may not be a pipedream" (Business Line, December 6). The government is talking about issuing right to market piped gas in the metros. However, there is little talk about developing the infrastructure necessary to tap the gas from the wells, transport and process it at the shore, and finally make it available to power plants and consumers. Large-scale construction of pipelines would be far simpler than building a network in the congested metros. Capping gas fields until such time, particularly in an energy-starved country such as India will only delay the growth both in terms of human development as well as overall fiscal growth. K. Venkataraman
