Work on the 1,600-MW NTPC-Telangana Super Thermal Power Project Phase-I, which was put on hold from March 25, 2020, following nationwide lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, restarted in line with Central and State government guidelines.
The power sector major started work today after the Peddapalli District Administration gave permission to NTPC following Central guidelines on allowing resumption of construction activities of ongoing projects with workers available onsite.
Construction activities are carried out in a staggered manner in two-shifts to limit the number of people while maintaining social distancing norms at all work sites.
Masks have been provided to all workers, employees and CISF personnel and sanitisers are placed at many places. Thermal screening and medical checkup is done for those who are entering the workplace.
