Adani Power Ne Jeeta 2,400 MW Bhagalpur Project Bihar Mein – Torrent Aur JSW Ko Diya Tough Competition

Adani Power Ltd ne Bihar ke 2,400 MW Bhagalpur (Pirpainti) power project ka contract jeet liya hai. Competitive bidding ke baad, Adani ne sabse low electricity tariff quote kiya, jisse Torrent Power, JSW Energy aur Lalitpur Power Generation Co. jaise bade bidders peeche reh gaye.

Yeh project Bihar sarkar ke liye bahut important hai, kyunki agle das saalon mein state ka power demand 17,000 MW se zyada hone ka estimate hai.

Adani Ne Diya Sabse Kam Tariff

Sources ke mutabik, Adani Power ne Rs 6.075 per kWh ka lowest tariff quote kiya — jisme Rs 4.165 fixed charge aur Rs 1.91 fuel charge include hai.Dusre bidders mein Torrent Power ne Rs 6.145, Lalitpur Power ne Rs 6.165, aur JSW Energy ne Rs 6.205 per unit quote kiya.

State government ne isko “highly competitive tariff” kaha hai, kyunki recent Madhya Pradesh ke 3,200 MW bid mein fixed charges Rs 4.22 se Rs 4.29 tak the.

Bidding process e-tender system ke through hua, taaki transparency aur fair competition ensure ho.

Rs 30,000 Crore Ki Investment Se Badhega Bihar Ka Industrial Growth

Adani Power ka yeh project lagbhag Rs 30,000 crore ki investment ke saath Bihar ke industrial aur employment growth ko major boost dega. Sarkar ke officials ke mutabik, project ka land pehle se state ke paas tha aur use nominal rent par Adani ko lease par diya gaya hai, Bihar Industrial Investment Promotion Policy 2025 ke under. Project term ke baad land dobara sarkar ke paas wapas aa jayegi.

Authorities ne clarify kiya hai ki Adani Group ko koi special concession nahi diya gaya — unhe khud plant develop karna hoga aur reliable power supply ensure karni hogi.

Political Controversy: Congress Ne Lagaye ‘Favouritism’ Ke Aarop

Project ke allotment ne Bihar mein political debate ko bhi hawa di hai. Congress ne former Union Minister R.K. Singh ke “power scam” wale statement ka hawala dete hue BJP par attack kiya.Congress leader K.C. Venugopal ne X par likha, “Bihar mein Adani Group ko red carpet welcome mil raha hai, jabki aam log mehengi bijli de rahe hain.”

Par experts ke hisaab se Rs 6.075 per unit ka rate current market cost ke hisaab se fair aur competitive hai. Power generation cost inputs ke badhne ke bawajood, yeh tariff country ke sabse lowest bids mein count hota hai.

Bihar Ke Liye Game-Changer Project

Yeh project asal mein 2012 mein Bihar State Power Generation Company Ltd (BSPGCL) ne conceive kiya tha, par investors ki kami ke wajah se baar-baar delay hota gaya. 2024 mein ise dobara relaunch kiya gaya, aur ab finally Adani Power ne isse jeet liya.

Bihar ne pichle 50 saalon mein private industrial investment bahut kam dekha hai. State ke 13.5 crore logon mein se adhikansh abhi bhi farming aur low-paying jobs par dependent hain. Lagbhag 34 million Bihari workers dusre states mein migrate karte hain.

Experts jaise V. Suresh kehte hain ki har Rs 1 crore infrastructure investment se 200-250 man-years employment generate hoti hai. Is hisaab se yeh Rs 30,000 crore ka Adani Power project Bihar mein thousands of jobs create karega aur industrial activity ko nayi raftaar dega.

Conclusion

Adani Power ka Bhagalpur project sirf Bihar ke energy sector ke liye nahi, balki poore region ke economic revival ke liye ek bada kadam hai.Transparent bidding process, competitive pricing aur large-scale employment potential ke saath, yeh project Bihar ke infrastructure development ke liye ek turning point sabit ho sakta hai.
