North India to benefit from Uri power project: Goyal
URI . With the 240 MW Uri-II power plant becoming operational today, Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal today said the electricity generated here would benefit north Indian states, including Jammu and Kashmir, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Delhi.The power project was to be completed in June last year, but the inauguration had to be postponed after NHPC found a lot of slit near head as well as at the rear tunnel during the mandatory pre-testing.
Uri-II will help NHPC to increase its power generation capacity to 1,920 MW from five projects in the state. The other four projects are 690-MW Salal, 480-MW Uri-I, 390-MW Dulhasti and 120-MW Sewa-II.
