Odisha Leases Land for Renewable Energy

Odisha Leases Land for Renewable Energy

The Odisha government is making a new rule to rent out land for clean energy projects like solar and hydro power.

This is to help make more clean energy and meet their goals to reduce pollution.

The land will be rented for 25 years at a very low cost.

The government is also encouraging small hydro projects and giving subsidies for solar panels on rooftops.

They are doing this to make sure they have enough clean energy in the future.

Some people are worried about land disputes and environmental issues, but the government says it will help the economy and create jobs.
