A district-level electricity committee meeting was held here on Tuesday, where Jagatsinghpur MP Dr Rajashree Mallick chaired.
The district-level electricity committee aims to ensure the involvement of people in the process under the Government of India-funded schemes of electrifying villages and hamlets.
Recently, the Union Government has approved a new scheme of Rs 3 lakh crore for strengthening the distribution systems and modernizing the electrification process to meet emerging challenges in the power sector. So the committee has been mandated to verify the impact of the works on the quality and reliability of power supply, performance of consumer services and grievance redressal system.
