Hence to uphold the State government’s faith being reposed in BHEL, the power plants works should be completed speedily and with quality standards.
For the Yadadri plant, the land required for the plant is acquired and all the permission including the environmental clearance are given. Hence the works should be speeded up and the plant should be completed on time.
