The Arunachal Pradesh Cabinet has approved investment proposals exceeding Rs. 40,000 crore for two large hydropower projects, reinforcing the state’s position as a major hydro energy hub.

The projects are expected to tap the region’s significant river potential and contribute to India’s clean energy capacity.

Hydropower development in the Northeast plays a critical role in balancing renewable energy generation.

These projects are also expected to generate employment and boost regional infrastructure development.
