On the second day of the crucial COP26 summit in Glasgow, India has made a big promise – Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the country would achieve “net-zero by 2070”.
Is it actually possible to achieve this target?
Prime Minister Modi also announced four other commitments, with deadlines as close as 2030.
What do these commitments mean?

Feku ka kaam sirf pheek na hai
"How Feasible Is Narendra Modi’s Net Zero by 2070 Pledge?", how does it matter?, which commitment has our worthy Feku honoured?, in any case, the rest of the world are equally well aware of Feku's antics, so no harm done.
till then they will make petrol for 2000rs per litre
Few more jumlas did not cost him nothing, few more hugs with thugs of climate rape and the bhakts will dance in trance saying, 0h he made us proud on an international platform.
Lots of meat eaters and crop burning as protest not possible.
Modi commitments are " I won't sell railways" and soon you see "let's privatise railways"
Look who is making commitments, doesn't the world know on whom it's counting.
lol by 2070, continents might shift and India could be 2 parts – just exaggerating. Such a long target is ridiculous.
This is called "greenwashing". All the world leaders have learnt to do this. In any case Modi won't be around in 2070 to defend this.
Modi's India will switch over to dung by 2070
Another international jhumla by the chowkidar he is not going to be there in 2070 to be questioned by UN
It is as feasible as 15 lakhs in every citizen bank account & achche din & World super power by 2020 😁
India we know today won't be around by 2070. Modi and his cult thinks Modi is immortal but he won't be around either
Oh my gosh!!!…look at the obesity of the anchor. 😲😯😮
It is nothing but a new jumla….he is demagogue
Which boast, since 2014, has Modi lived up to. These boasts have been a covert cover to an agenda, the 2 H's – Hinduvta and Hatred, the two twins
The bigger the stage the greater the Jumla: Modi's first Law of Election Campaigning
