 I discuss India's recent discovery of 5.9 million tonnes of lithium in Jammu and Kashmir, which gives India the third-largest reserves of lithium in the world after Chile and Australia. While this is excellent news, the video highlights that India's lack of manufacturing plants means that it cannot take advantage of this discovery yet, & it’s estimated that it will take 5 to 7 years to convert these reserves into commercial use. India needs to invest in infrastructure and technology to extract & utilize these reserves more efficiently. If India can get things right, this discovery could fuel the country's ambition for a greener future.
