Chandigarh: A group of villages in the Nalwa area of Haryana's Hisar
district are set to reap the benefits of their own ability to
plan: Having successfully reduced aggregate technical and
commercial (AT and C) power supply losses to below 25 percent,
these villages are set to get power supply for 20-22 hours every
day.
The benefit will come to residents of 13 villages of the Nalwa
assembly constituency, 250 km from here, as they opted for a
scheme of the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), a
state-run power distribution company, under which they were to
reduce power losses.
"Nalwa in district Hisar will be the first assembly constituency
in Haryana to get electricity supply on urban mode as the
consumers in the area are responding enthusiastically to a scheme
of the DHBVN," Nalwa legislator Sampat Singh, a former finance
minister of Haryana, said Sunday.
Singh said he was persuading the villagers to reduce AT and C
losses to below 25 percent and get the meters re-located outside
houses on pillar boxes to get power supply on urban mode for 20-22
hours a day. He said that some villages were already getting power
supply for 20-22 hours daily.
"The villagers are responding enthusiastically, and would soon
succeed in getting round-the-clock supply," he said.
