The Minister said that Ladakh has a huge potential for the development of solar power owing to its huge area. Referring to challenges faced by the Power department during the winter season, the Minister said that additional demands of power from the UT are being met from the Government of India’s excess quota to ensure that there is an uninterrupted supply of power during the harsh winter months. He added that all efforts will be made to address manpower issues of the Power department at the earliest.
Talking about the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme of the UT, Lal said that works to the tune of INR 1,080 crore have already been awarded and the activities have started.
The Minister informed that power supply and distribution lines up to Nubra Valley and Zanskar Valley will be set up expeditiously, which will prove to be of great help in meeting the energy requirements of the two regions. He further added that all efforts are being made on war footing to remove the bottlenecks associated with the projects.
