Neemuch Hydropower Plant Ready for Power Generation by March

Madhya Pradesh's 2,000 MW Neemuch hydropower plant, developed by a private company at a cost of Rs. 60 bn, is ready for operations, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said. Power generation is expected to start in March 2027, marking a major addition to the state's renewable-energy infrastructure.

One turbine at the plant is scheduled to become operational in December 2026. The facility, located in Neemuch district, is among the largest hydropower projects of its kind in Asia, according to information released after the chief minister's remarks.

Yadav said the project would increase Madhya Pradesh's power-generation capacity and strengthen its position in the renewable-energy sector. The plant's full 2,000 MW capacity is expected to become operational by March 2027, subject to the scheduled commissioning programme.

The project is expected to provide a significant boost to the state's renewable-energy capacity once all its units are operational. The commissioning of the first turbine in December will mark the initial stage of power generation before the plant reaches its planned full capacity.

Separately, Yadav said the state government would celebrate Govardhan Puja on a large scale and provide cash prizes to cattle rearers whose indigenous milch cows win competitions. Officials also said he met senior functionaries of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh at Daly College in Indore. No details of the meeting, which lasted about an hour, were released by the state government or the organisation. The RSS held its annual Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal meeting at the college from November 2 to 4, with about 400 representatives of the Sangh Parivar attending, including RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.
