摘要

THE Prime Minister's Project Monitoring Group (PMG) chairman Anil Swamp said 40 per cent of the 419 stalled large investment projects in his hand were struck due to environmental clearances. The project monitoring group was set up by the central government for faster clearance of projects worth more than Rs 1,000 crore. The group coordinates with ministries and other agencies to get clearances for projects.
