Maharashtra is the first state to make policy on fly ash, which was further considered by the Central government. Maximum utilisation of fly ash will help to serve as a solution to pollution problems.

The objective is to tie up with an academic institution is to spread awareness on this topic.  Union minister Nitin Gadkari too has been taking interest in fly ash utilisation and its promotion.
