Bihar to Revamp Power Infra

The Bihar government has sanctioned Rs 2,000 crore for renovating the existing power infrastructure in the state. The funding for strengthening the power infrastructure will come from various centrally sponsored schemes such as Backward Region Grant Fund (BRGF), Rajeev Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojna (RGGVY) and Accelerated Power Development and Reforms Programme (APDRP). Besides this, funding is also also expected from various other multilateral organisations and the state's own plans. Contact: Government of Bihar. Tel: 0612-222 3886. Website: www.gov.bih.nic.in
