He gave the LOA papers to the representatives of selected developers include Avaada Power, Beampow Energy, Talettutayi Solar Project, TP Saurya Limited, Mumbai, and Al Jomaih Energy & Water Company Dubai.
“Situations like global warming, flood, and drought at the same time are turning into common incidents. We need to work in this phase,” said he.
“This situation has occurred because our ancestors had manipulated the natural resources. Minerals are excavated and forests were destroyed. Now it’s a time to restructure the nature, buy using maximum usage of solar power”.
“Power generated from thermal plants and hydropower plants are costlier and also harm nature, but the power generated from solar energy is good for nature,” said the CM in his address.

“In the recent bidding for 1500 MW Agar-Shajapur-Neemuch Solar Park, the record of lowest solar tariff in the country has been set. With the establishment of these projects, there will be a private investment of about Rs 5250 crores in the state,” said the minister.
