India: The government of the Puducherry union territory has proposed a subsidised cement scheme for low and middle-income residents. The scheme will be named after former Congress President Sonia Gandhi, according to the Press Trust of India. The project intends to emulate the Amma Cement scheme currently running in Tamil Nadu. Cement for the scheme will be procured outside of the region due to a lack of production plants.
