Kitlana in Bhiwani or Balsamand in Hisar likely site Haryana is betting high on nuclear power. Determined to become self-sufficient in power, the state is now vying with the Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) to set up a second nuclear power plant at either Bhiwani or Hisar. Officials in the Haryana Power Generation Corporation Limited (HPGCL) today said they had already indicated two sites (Kitlana in Bhiwani and Balsamand in Hisar) to the NPCIL, for setting up a nuclear power plant.
