हम दोनों सहमत हैं कि हमें power सेक्टर में सहयोग के अवसरों का पूरा लाभ उठाना चाहिए। हमारा Joint Vision Statement on Power Cooperation भविष्य में सहयोग का ब्लूप्रिंट साबित होगा। हमने पंचेश्वर परियोजना में तेज़ गति से आगे बढ़ने के महत्व पर जोर दिया। यह project इस क्षेत्र के विकास के लिए एक game changer सिद्ध होगा।हमने भारतीय कंपनियों द्वारा नेपाल के hydropower development योजनाओं में और अधिक भागीदारी के विषय पर भी सहमती व्यक्त की। यह प्रसन्नता का विषय है कि नेपाल अपनी surplus power भारत को निर्यात कर रहा है। इसका नेपाल की आर्थिक प्रगति में अच्छा योगदान रहेगा। मुझे यह बताते हुए हर्ष हो रहा है कि नेपाल से power आयात करने के कई और प्रस्तावों को भी स्वीकृत किया जा रहा है।
