Prime Minister Narendra Modi has laid the foundation stones of development projects of around 10 thousand crore rupees in the state of Haryana.
On the occasion of the birth anniversary of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, he laid the foundation for a GOBARdhan Plant in Yamunanagar of Rs 90 crore and inaugurated the Rewari Bypass, built at a cost of Rs 1,069 crore. The Union Ministry of Power has granted approval to Haryana Power Generation Corp Ltd (HPGCL) to set up the third unit of 800 MW at Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram Thermal Power Plant in Yamunanagar.
The project is an expansion of the existing plant that currently operates 2×300 MW units. A total of 233 acres will be used for constructing the new unit. The project is targeted to be completed within 52 months, and commercial operations are expected to begin within 48 months by March 2029.
With this new unit, Haryana’s in-house power generation capacity will increase to 3,382 MW. PM Modi also opened the Rewari bypass, which has been developed under the Bharatmala scheme on Hybrid Annuity Mode at a cost of Rs 1,069 crore.

This four-lane bypass has been constructed around Rewari city to reduce traffic congestion. The total length of the bypass is 14.4 km. It begins at the NH-352 junction and connects to NH-11 towards Narnaul.
This project is a significant step towards resolving traffic issues in Rewari city and enhancing connectivity to Narnaul. One of the major benefits of the Rewari bypass is the reduction of travel time between Delhi and Narnaul by nearly one hour. This will not only benefit commuters but also expedite goods transportation.
