Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma, officially opened the eagerly anticipated 22.5 MW Ganol Hydro Power Project in the West Garo Hills, close to Tura.
The Chief Minister described the project’s opening as a “historic” and “landmark day” for Garo Hills and claimed that the current administration’s unwavering dedication allowed for the completion of the over? 560 crore project, which was intended to put Garo Hills on the national power map.
The CM praised James K Sangma (now health minister) for his role in reviving the abandoned project and ensuring its completion during his tenure as power minister. The CM said it was at Sangma’s suggestion that the government decided to allocate additional funds to complete the project.
