The correct answer is

Uttar Pradesh 

To determine which state is not a beneficiary of the Vindhyachal Power Plant operated by NTPC, let's first understand what this plant is and which states are its beneficiaries.

The Vindhyachal Thermal Power Station is one of the largest power plants in India, located in Singrauli district of Madhya Pradesh. NTPC operates this plant, and it is known for supplying electricity to various states in India.

The primary states benefiting from the Vindhyachal Power Plant include:

  • Madhya Pradesh
  • Chhattisgarh
  • Gujarat
  • Maharashtra
  • Goa

Given the options in the question, let's analyze each:

  • Gujarat - Is indeed a beneficiary state.
  • Uttar Pradesh - Even though it is a neighboring state to Madhya Pradesh, it is not one of the primary beneficiaries noted in this context.
  • Maharashtra - Is a beneficiary state, receiving electricity from the Vindhyachal Plant.
  • Goa - Also listed among the beneficiary states from this power plant.

Hence, the conclusion is that Uttar Pradesh is not a beneficiary state from the Vindhyachal Power Plant as per the provided options in the question.
