India Boosts Recycling Capacity for Critical Minerals

India is working to secure important minerals like lithium and cobalt, essential for new technologies.

The government is boosting recycling to ensure a steady supply and reduce reliance on other countries.

A new plan, part of the National Critical Mineral Mission, will help recycle things like old electronics and batteries.

This will create more jobs and attract investment.

The goal is to support a cleaner energy future and maintain technological independence, with innovation and patent filings as key targets.

A Centre of Excellence is planned to facilitate this.
