Upon completion of the new installations, the total installed solar power capacity across all CISF campuses will reach 5,271 KW. The MHA has entrusted NVVN with the execution of the project for installation, operation and maintenance of rooftop on-grid solar power plants across all Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs) campuses like the CISF.
