Film on Migratory Birds at NTPC Bongaigaon (08.05.2021)

NTPC Bongaigaon (3 x 250 MW) in Assam has become the new nest for migratory birds. The ash dyke area of the region has become the preferred corner for the migratory birds, tucked amidst the lap of nature.

NTPC believes in maintaining a sustainable ecosystem and arrival of these migratory birds is testimony to the fact that apart from powering the nation, NTPC power plants also plays a pivotal role in conserving and preserving nature.

Sustainable and effective ash utilization is one of the top priority for NTPC.
The station has made sincere efforts to capture movement of the new members of NTPC Bongaigaon through a short film, ‘Bringing Life to the Ashes’, on the occasion of World Migratory Birds Day. The film was released today, virtually, among the internal audience by Shri Sunil Kumar Satya, RED (ER-II) and BUH (Darlipalli) through MS Teams.

Various measures have been undertaken by the station for protecting, conserving and restoring the ecosystem which has become the nestling ground for more than 10 species of migratory birds. These birds can be seen flocking in the waters of the ash dyke area of the station, bringing life to the ashes.

With minimal human interference, these birds have chosen the bio-diversified region as their ‘winter home’. The region has spotted rare species like White Wagtail (Motacilla alba), Grey-headed Lapwing (Vanellus cinereus), Ferruginous Pochard (Aythya nyroca), River Lapwing (Vanellus duvaucelii), Eurasian Teal (Anas crecca), Indian Cormorant (Plalacrocorax fuscicollis), Little Ringed Plover (Charadrius dubius), Common Sandpiper (Actitis hypoleucos), Barn Shallow (Hirundo rustica), Black Kite (Milvus migrans), making NTPC Bongaigaon a safe haven for the feathered friends. Besides the migratory birds, the ask dyke region is also the preferred playground for the local species to flock around.
