Birgunj, Aug 4 : Installation of 33-kV underground power transmission line from Parsa National Park to Gadhimai via Piluwa of Bara is to take strides. It has long been stalled.
Further works would advance in the
construction of the transmission lines after the Ministry of Forest and Environment
permitted Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) for the construction in the
National Park area as part of the ongoing construction of a 132-KV power
transmission line.
The Ministry has allowed NEA for
the construction of a 33-kV underground power transmission line as per the latter's
demand.
According to Minister Pradeep
Yadav, a transmission line would be constructed by fully adhering to the
conditions set by the Department of National Parks and Wildlife
Conservation.
Federation of Nepalese Chambers of
Commerce and Industry (FNCCI) central member and Birgunj Chamber of Commerce
and Industry chairperson Dr. Subodh Kumar Gupta expressed his confidence that
power supply would be further smooth for the industries of Bara and Parsa after
the construction of the underground transmission line.
