一 | India is on track to challenge China’s dominance in the solar energy sector and become a global force in green hydrogen as investments in renewables are increasing rapidly, Indian Minister for Power and Renewable Energy Raj Kumar Singh said in Sydney on Tuesday.,Singh, who is in Sydney to attend a two-day energy forum and meetings of the Quad group of nations, said in an interview that the investments from overseas are helping to position India as a key future supplier of clean energy technology and as an exporter of low-emissions hydrogen and ammonia.,The Quad group of nations includes the US, Japan, Australia, and India.,“Foreign investment in renewables is averaging about $9 billion to $11 billion a year, and is going to go up exponentially, alongside major developments by domestic entities,” the minister said.,Quoting Singh, Bloomberg reported that India will emerge as the biggest manufacturing center for high-efficiency solar cells modules after China and become a major supplier of green hydrogen and ammonia.,According to BloombergNEF, India currently accounts for only a fraction of production of solar cells and modules, with China dominating both sectors. In 2021, China manufactured more than two-thirds of modules and 86 percent of cells.,The Indian government set up the Renewable Energy Investment Promotion and Facilitation Board (REIPFB) as one-stop assistance and facilitation for the industry and investors for the development of projects and bringing new investment to the renewable energy sector in the country.,The ministry is making continuous efforts to boost investments across the value chain by supporting companies through the entire investment process.

One of the women reportedly pretended to be the police station's SHO while wearing a uniform and carrying a handcrafted pistol. Another gang member pretended to be the deputy superintendent while wearing badges.,From their possession, police seized a country-made pistol, four police uniforms, more than 500 Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana application forms (an Indian government program that aims to create affordable homes for the poor), 40 Banka BDO electoral cards, bank checkbooks, five cellphones, a seal belonging to the political party Janata Dal (United) district president Alka Kumari, and fake identification cards, among other incriminating items.,"The kingpin of the gang, Bhola Yadav alias Mukhia, is still at large, while the roles of guest house manager Heman Mishra, Sunil Mehtar and Alka Kumari are under the scanner,” the superintendent of police is quoted as saying.,According to him, Bhola and other con artists deceived people by promising them jobs and incentives from various government programs.,The preliminary findings of the ongoing investigation reportedly revealed that the criminal mastermind Bhola established an office in the city of Patna, central Bihar, under the guise of the Escort Police Team and conned individuals into working for him by promising positions in the police and other government agencies.,Additionally, they used other existing government initiatives as a cover to extort money from the locals. Two of the women arrested admitted to paying Bhola bribes of 90,000 and 55,000 rupees (about $1,120 and $600 correspondingly), respectively, during questioning.,The investigators suggested that "Bhola got them posted in the fake police station and the duo thought they were recruited in the police."。
