Gidderwaha power plant : No clerance yet says CM--HT
Chief minister Parkash Singh Badal on Thursday spoke with HT at Bhagwana Pura village in the Lambi jurisdiction. He accepted that the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) was still to clear the project that had been in pipeline for the past four years. “The latest is that it has not been cleared yet by the central agency,“ he said.
HT was first to report on January 12 that the NTPC had not agreed to submit the landacquisition cost set by the district price fixation committee (DPFC), while farmers sought almost double the price that the DPFC had set for their land.
