Rajasthan Patrika — CMA Vice President Raghavpat Singhania said green cement and sustainable manufacturing hold immense potential, describing the coming decade as the most exciting phase for Indian infrastructure, with cement an essential part of every highway, railway, airport and residential project. India is the world's second-largest cement producer, though per capita consumption remains well below the global average, pointing to significant headroom for responsible growth. The industry has adopted clean technologies, digitalisation and resource-efficient manufacturing, with growing use of blended cement helping cut carbon footprint alongside alternative fuels and industrial by-products. Backing India's 2070 net-zero commitment, Singhania said the sector is investing in energy efficiency, renewable energy, alternative fuels and carbon capture, and described Rajasthan's limestone reserves, manufacturing base and renewable energy leadership as ideal for green cement production.
