Answer
(a) "CNG" in the given picture refers to 'Compressed Natural Gas'. It's a form of natural gas that is compressed under high pressure, making it easier to store and transport.
(b) CNG is being used in auto rickshaws because it is generally considered a cleaner and more efficient fuel alternative compared to petrol or diesel.
