Guwahati: Tripura is mulling to supply power to Nepal.
Tripura, a power surplus state, is already supplying power to Bangladesh. Tripura’s Power and Agriculture Minister Ratan Lal Nath said on Friday, “Tripura is keen to supply power to Nepal.”
He said that a plan is underway to supply power from Tripura to Nepal, and for that, a meeting was held in New Delhi on Friday, as the Central government will take the final call.
Though Tripura does not share a border with Nepal, five Indian states share a border. Tripura is currently supplying over 100 MW of electricity to Bangladesh.
Tripura started supplying 100 MW of power to Bangladesh from the state-owned ONGC Tripura Power Company ( OTPC) power plant in southern Tripura’s Gomati district in March 2016.
