NTPC Limited’s Bongaigaon unit has recently been honored for its significant contributions to healthcare and environmental protection, according to a company statement issued on Sunday. The plant received two prestigious awards: the 11th CSR India Award 2025 in the healthcare promotion category, and the 24th Global Environment and Sustainability Award 2025 from the Greentech Foundation, recognizing its environmental achievements.
The CSR India Award acknowledges the plant’s efforts to enhance healthcare in Tuensang district, a remote area in Nagaland, Northeast India. NTPC Bongaigaon’s initiatives have helped improve healthcare infrastructure, provide essential medical equipment, and expand outreach programs to boost access to primary and preventive care.
Meanwhile, the Global Environment and Sustainability Award highlights the plant’s ongoing commitment to sustainable practices and environmental stewardship. NTPC Bongaigaon has implemented best practices in ecological conservation and efficient resource management at its 750 MW power station.
