Tripura Power Minister Ratan Lal Nath on September 30 said that comprehensive measures have been implemented to ensure an uninterrupted power supply during the upcoming festivals




Tripura Power Minister Ratan Lal Nath is taking proactive steps to ensure uninterrupted power supply during the upcoming festivals in the state. On October 5, he is scheduled to hold a crucial meeting with Union Power Minister Raj Kumar Singh in New Delhi. This meeting signifies the commitment to addressing the power supply challenges and coordinating efforts between the state and central governments.

Minister Nath emphasized the cultural and religious significance of festivals like Durga Puja, Lakshmi Puja, and Kali Puja in Tripura. These festivals are celebrated with great fervor by people of all faiths, making reliable power supply essential to the smooth conduct of festivities.

The minister noted the increasing power demands during previous years' festivals. In 2021, the peak power demand reached 327 megawatts, and in 2022, it surged to 332 megawatts during the festivities. For this year, it is anticipated that the demand will rise to 380 megawatts during peak hours. To meet this demand, the power department has secured an additional 80 MW, ensuring that the festivals are powered without major interruptions.

Addressing an ongoing issue with the third unit of the Rukhya power plant, Minister Nath assured that the matter is close to being resolved. He mentioned that some final steps are remaining, and his meeting with Union Power Minister Raj Kumar Singh on October 5 aims to expedite the resolution. Meetings have already taken place, with a follow-up meeting ensuring that all necessary tasks will be concluded by October 10.

In preparation for the festivals, the power department has strategically positioned an adequate number of transformers at various locations across the state. This proactive measure will help ensure that power distribution remains stable and efficient during the festive season, meeting the heightened electricity demands associated with the celebrations.
