The government has formed a committee headed by the secretary, ministry of power, Anil Razdan, to look into the details of the request for proposal (RFP) and request for qualification (RFQ) documents, so that mistakes made in the Sasan project are not repeated, Power Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said today. |
The other members of the committee would include representatives from the ministry of power, ministry of law and ministry of corporate affairs. |
"The committee will submit its report within 15 days," said Shinde. |
The government proposes to build seven more ultra mega power projects, each with a capacity to generate 4,000 Mw, at Tadri (Karnataka), Girye (Maharashtra), Akaltara (Chattisgarh), Cheyuur (Tamil Nadu), Jharsuguda (Orissa), Krishnapattnam (Andhra Pradesh) and Tilaiya (Jharkhand). So far, only the Mundra project in Gujarat, which was won by Tata Power Company, is on schedule. |
