India's plan to develop the Khulna power project in Bangladesh hangs in balance after differences emerged between the two sides over tariff and the use of Chinese equipment. The Bangladesh Power Development Board does not want the power tariff to exceed 4 taka (Rs 2.80) per unit, but NTPC Ltd says that it will become unviable at less than Rs.3.50 per unit. Bangladesh also wants Chinese power generation equipment to be used in th coal-based, 1,320 MW project at Khulna.
