The Adani Group plans to invest Rs 20,000 crore to set up a thermal power plant in Bihar, said Adani Enterprises Director Pranav Adani on Friday. Sharing the conglomerate's investment roadmap at Bihar Business Connect in Patna, he said the power plant will open up thousands of new job opportunities in the state.
"We are also exploring investments in Bihar's energy sector. Our plan is to invest around Rs 23,000 crore to set up an ultra-super critical thermal power plant. We expect such a massive project to open up at least 12,000 job vacancies in the pre-commissioning phase and also lead to 1,500 skilled jobs during the operational stage," said Mr Adani.
