Nepal seeks to buy extra 90MW power from Bihar to increase supply to Birgunj factories

Industrialists complain about hours-long undeclared outages, which are affecting operations in one of the country’s largest industrial belts.

Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) says that it has requested the Bihar state government of India to provide an extra 90 megawatts of electricity as the drop in domestic production has led to an energy deficit in the country.
