Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav likened electricity to the life force in our bodies: indispensable for every pulse of progress. On January 27, 2026, at Samatva Bhawan in Bhopal, he oversaw MoUs for 4,000 MW of new power generation, a ₹60,000 crore infusion that promises to meet 100% demand and anchor Madhya Pradesh’s lasting development.
Torrent Power (1,600 MW, Rupees 24,000 crore), Adani Power (800 MW + 800 MW green shoe, Rupees 24,000 crore), and Hindustan Thermal (800 MW, Rupees 12,000 crore) inked deals with MP Power Management Company under the DBFOO model design, build, finance, own, operate. These Anuppur based plants will hum by 2030, creating 8,000 direct and indirect jobs while syncing land, water, environment, coal, and rail needs.
This isn’t mere capacity addition; its a masterstroke. MP, already a renewable energy frontrunner, draws giants with industry friendly policies, robust infra, and good governance. CM Yadav spotlighted PM Modi’s PM Mitra Park as a job engine, alongside 2026 as Kisan Kalyan Varsh to fuel agri processing and self employment.
Yet challenges loom: ensuring green compliance, competitive tariffs, and equitable benefits for locals. If delivered, this powers MP from central India’s heartland to national powerhouse status, lighting homes, farms, and factories alike.
Dr. Yadav’s vision proves energy isn’t just volts; its votes for progress.
