I wish to purchase a house in India, I am of indian nationality, but live in Tanzania. Can my mother purchase it in my name through power of attorney, as I won’t be able to be physically present for a long time. Are there any alternate ways of doing this?

Yes, you can give a POA to your mother to conclude the sale on your behalf. The POA can be executed by you before the Indian Embassy in Tanzania or closest to you and the same can then be forwarded to India for adjudication and payment of stamp duty and thereupon your mother can utilise the same for concluding the sale.
