The transmission line is part of India- Bangladesh Power Interconnection Project launched with an aim to facilitate the exchange of electricity between the two countries- India and Bangladesh.

The APL entails two 800MW- 800 MW plants. Now, the first plant of 800 MW plant has started production for commercial supply of electricity.
