Gautam Adani said in a statement issued on X that the meeting with Bhutan’s Prime Minister, Dasho Tshering Tobgay, was very exciting. Signed an agreement with Druk Green Power Corporation Limited for a 570 MW green hydropower plant in Chukha province.

Adani has written that I am looking forward to working together on hydro and other infrastructure in Bhutan.
