The power being developed in various projects in Nepal involving Indian companies and Indian investment is coming to India in a bigger way," he said."This year, the amount of power that will be coming to India from Nepal will be significantly enhanced over last year. There is a great deal of progress in the paradigm of projects with Indian investment in Nepal.
