Biomass co-firing by thermal plants saves over 35 lakh MT CO₂, stubble burning in Punjab down 80%

New Delhi: More than 35 lakh metric tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions have been saved through biomass co-firing by thermal power plants , while stubble burning incidents in Punjab have fallen by over 80 per cent between 2021 and 2024, according to the Commission for Air Quality Management ( CAQM ). As of mid-2025, 11 thermal power plants (TPPs) in the National Capital Region (NCR) and 71 nationwide have adopted biomass co-firing, resulting in savings of 25.79 lakh MT CO₂ in NCR and 34.77 lakh MT across the country. The biomass co-firing mandate, introduced in 2021, requires NCR plants to co-fire 5–10 per cent biomass with coal. In June 2025, CAQM extended the mandate to brick kilns in non-NCR Punjab and Haryana, targeting at least 50 per cent biomass use by November 2028. Between 2021 and 2024, stubble fire counts in Punjab dropped from 71,304 to 10,909 and in Haryana from 6,829 to 1,315. Thermal power plants in Punjab have been using paddy straw as biomass fuel, creating additional income sources for farmers. Delhi-NCR recorded an average AQI of 167 between January and September 2023, the second-best in six years. July 2025 saw an AQI of 79, the cleanest July in a decade. PM₁₀ levels have declined by 15 per cent since 2017-18, and Stage III restrictions under the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) were lifted in early 2025 due to sustained improvement in air quality. 'CAQM's impact in being able to address stubble burning and nudge incorporation of cleaner methods in areas such as thermal power generation has been a key step towards inculcating systematic changes,' said Dr. Ranjana Ray Chaudhuri, Associate Professor, TERI School of Advanced Studies. She called for advanced combustion techniques, carbon capture, renewable integration, and firm biomass supply chains to further cut emissions. Agricultural economist Deepak Pareek said, 'By converting crop residue into biomass or biochar, farmers can unlock a powerful combination of economic and environmental gains. Biomass sales to industries like thermal power plants create new income streams, cut waste disposal costs, and replace polluting fossil fuels with renewable energy.' Environmental expert Dr. Rajeev Sharma noted that CAQM's measures, including support for pellet manufacturing, have increased biomass co-firing volumes in TPPs from 11.7 lakh MT in FY24 to 21.49 lakh MT by mid-FY26. CAQM has also implemented measures beyond the power sector, including mandatory dust control SOPs at construction sites, AI-based vehicle counting, drone surveillance, and public participation campaigns. The commission's framework is being considered for replication in other high-pollution cities such as Bengaluru.

Separate calendars to end exam date confusion

Indore: In a move aimed at bringing clarity and predictability to students' academic schedules, Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) has, for the first time, introduced three separate academic calendars for its 34 University Teaching Departments (UTDs). The decision is expected to particularly benefit students juggling competitive exams, internships, and coursework, as it eliminates uncertainty in exam and result timelines. University officials said the new system addresses a persistent issue caused by overlapping admission and examination schedules in recent years. Since DAVV joined the Central University Entrance Test (CUET) in 2022, the admission process for CUET-based courses stretched into late August or even September, often clashing with non-CUET and engineering course timelines. This left students unclear about when exams would be held and results declared, making it difficult to plan further studies or competitive exam preparations. Under the revised arrangement, over 100 non-CUET courses will hold first-semester examinations between November 25 and December 15, with results declared within seven days. JEE-based engineering courses at the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) will conduct exams from December 5 to 24, also with a one-week result window.

These results too will be declared within seven days."This ensures that every student knows exactly when their exams, results, and review processes will take place," said Controller of Exam Dr Ashesh Tiwari. "It will also help them schedule competitive exam preparation, internships, and other academic activities without last-minute changes." Students have welcomed the step, calling it a much-needed fix. The calendars will soon be available on university's website. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

50,000 houses in Goa will be regularised over next few days

Panaji: Over 50,000 houses will be regularised in the state in the next few days following the three laws passed in the recently concluded monsoon session of the Goa legislative assembly. Chief minister Pramod Sawant said that under the flagship initiative 'Majhe Ghar', state govt has undertaken several 'bold, compassionate, and people-centric' reforms to ensure every Goan family can claim this fundamental right. Sawant said that under the Goa Land Revenue Code (Amendment) Bill, 2025, homes built on govt land before Feb 28, 2014, by landless, long-term residents can now be regularised. Class-I occupancy will be granted, with up to 400sqm (plinth+2m buffer) allowed. 'A strict no-transfer clause for 20 years. False declarations will invite legal penalties. This ensures security of tenure to those who have built and lived with hope but without rights,' Sawant said. 'A total of 24,270 families will benefit from the law, including 22,086 Goan families and 2,184 non-Goan families.' On the regularisation of houses on encroached comunidade land, Sawant said through the Goa Legislative Diploma No 2070 (Amendment) Bill, 2025, govt has inserted an article allowing the regularisation of dwelling houses built on comunidade land before Feb 28, 2014, by landless individuals. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Do you have a mouse?

No regularisation in protected zones like CRZ, forests, or tenanted land,' Sawant said. 'This is a one-time humanitarian measure, ensuring dignity without compromising community rights. A total of 19,259 families will benefit from having houses on comunidade land, including 14,302 Goan families and 4,957 non-Goan families. ' On the Goa Regularisation of Unauthorized Construction (Amendment) Bill, 2025, Sawant said that the bill opens a new two-year window for applicants who missed previous deadlines or faced rejection. Consent from co-owners is no longer needed, and area limits have increased to 600sqm in rural areas and 1,000sqm in urban areas. 'Structures on regularised comunidade and govt land are now eligible. CRZ dwellings built before Feb 19, 1991, are included,' Sawant said. 'A review mechanism is also introduced to streamline decisions and avoid delays.' Sawant said that under the act, state govt received 10,239 applications, 2,133 were approved, 4,770 were rejected, and 3,334 are under process.
