Bangladesh's participation is said to have been patchy. In 1999, the Government of India approved a 163 metre-high dam as a multi-purpose project to serve the needs of flood control as well as hydro-electric power generation. The North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Limited (NEEPCO) was initially entrusted with the project. [4]
