Power plants of Rajasthan MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

Kota Thermal Power Plant is treated as Rajasthan's first major coal-based thermal power station, so it fits the phrase used in the question. Chhabra Power Plant and Kalisindh Thermal Power Plant are later coal-based projects in the state. Suratgarh Power Plant is also an important thermal power station, but it was not the first major coal-based plant in Rajasthan. The official key therefore points to Kota Thermal Power Plant, not to the later capacity additions at Chhabra, Suratgarh, or Kalisindh.

Suratgarh Thermal Power Station is identified as Rajasthan’s first super thermal power plant, matching the official key. It is a major coal-based thermal station in the state’s power sector. Jawahar Sagar is a hydroelectric power station, so it does not answer a question about a super thermal plant. Chhabra Thermal Power Plant is also thermal, but it is not the first super thermal power plant of Rajasthan as asked here. Mahi Bajaj Sagar is another hydroelectric project, so its generation type itself rules it out for this specific label.
