PM Modi was in the two states during his day-long visit to the northeast.
In Mizoram, he dedicated the 60-MW Tuirial hydropower power project, which makes it the third power-surplus state in the northeast, to Sikkim and Tripura. The project is expected to produce "251 million units" of electricity annually. Announced in 1998 by the then Atal Bihari Vajpayee government, it was the first major central government project to be successfully commissioned in Mizoram.
