Speaking in the Lok Sabha on Monday, he said the bill, which was passed by the Lok Sabha on August 8 gives legislative backing to the five elements of Prime Minister's Panchamrit -(1) Sourcing 50% electricity from non-fossil fuels, (2) Reduce carbon emission by 1 billion tones, (3) Installation of 500 GW of non-fossil energy capacity, (4) Achieve net-zero carbon emission by 2070 and (5) Reduce emissions.
