Key Highlights

• At the Distribution level, 740 out of 1373 numbers of 11 kV feeders have been restored and restoration of remaining accessible feeders is being undertaken on priority.
• The pace of restoration in certain areas remains constrained due to inaccessibility of snow-bound and rain-affected locations, particularly in hilly and remote regions.
• The major affected areas include parts of Poonch, Rajouri, Kathua, Doda, Udhampur, Reasi, Ramban, Kishtwar and Samba districts, especially the higher reaches and interior areas.
• In District Jammu, power infrastructure has been affected mainly due to heavy rainfall, strong winds and uprooting of trees leading to damage of HT and LT lines.
• Adequate manpower, machinery and material have been mobilized to assess damages and ensure early restoration of power supply across all affected areas.
