NoAccording to consistent press report, the Indian government decided to bar imports of certain equipment used in electricity generation on 20 January 2010. Due to a decision by the empowered group of ministers, ultra mega power projects (UMPP) are no longer allowed to source equipment from abroad, but are required to tender domestically.
