Mid-Marshyangdhi to be commissioned Sunday

Kathmandu, 14 Dec: The 70MW Mid-Marshyangdhi, German assisted Nepal’s biggest hydro power plant, is being commissioned Sunday by Prime Minister Prachanda to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Nepal and Germany.
But the commissioning of the plant won’t ease the seven-hour load-shedding in the midst of winter.
The project is being commissioned four years behind schedule.
