The solution to Punjab (and Other States) is to “embrace” AgriVoltaics (AV) that enables one to Graze and Grow food below as one generates Pollution Free Solar Electricity above.
Using 5% of India’s 2.2 Million km2 of Farmland, AV can provide ALL the Energy Needed for a ZERO POLLUTION BHARAT… Bharat 2050 …. with a 15TW, 18,000TWh/yr AV System.
This System, financed by State/Central Govt’s Implementing the 1992 UN Rio Agreement, PRINCIPLE #16 (already accepted by the GOI), can provide USD2+Trillion/yr, PAID BY THE POLLUTERS IN INDIA ONLY. It can FINANCE the above, as it Transitions the Dirty-n-Polluted India today, to a ZERO POLLUTION BHARAT by 2050… or earlier. This also halts the 2.5 Million Premature Deaths annually and 35Million DALY of Suffering caused by Pollution in India… TODAY…
