As part of the government’s plans to connect all northeastern states with gas pipelines, there is to be a 721-km pipeline running from Guwahati in Assam to Barauni in Bihar by 2021.
According to Mr. S. Rath, a member of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB), the Haldia-Paradip-Barauni pipeline will connect Guwahati. This pipeline, being built by GAIL, is likely to be commissioned by 2021 at a cost of Rs. 3,000-crore.
