Background

The 165 MW coal-fired power plant was located in Faridabad, Haryana, India and operated by Haryana Power Generation Co. A 2019 news article stated that the power plant had been shut down in 2011, but that environmental litigation was ongoing after the government had given permission for the transportation of fly ash from the retired plant to construction sites.

In April 2024, the National Green Tribunal directed the Haryana Power Generation Corporation to submit details on its management of fly ash dispoal at the closed power station.
