In 2024, the state upgraded over 12,000 kilometers of old low-tension (LT) lines with safer, covered conductors. Furthermore, 250 kilometers of new 11 kV lines have been added to strengthen the power infrastructure.
Under the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS), the project also includes the construction of 489 new high-voltage transformers. These upgrades are expected to meet the growing power demand while ensuring improved voltage stability and reliable power supply.
This initiative will not only boost the power infrastructure but also enhance safety and service quality for the state.
