TEZU, Jun 11: The Eastern districts of the state continues to reel under darkness for last six days after collapse of two spans of 1.5 Km conductors of 132 KV Aalo – Pasighat Power Line. Sources say rains played spoilsport near Renging village where soil erosion and felling of trees on the conductors completely snapped the power supply causing acute power crisis in East Siang, Lower Dibang Valley, Lohit, Anjaw, Namsai and Changlang districts since June 6 last.
The restoration involving jungle clearance, restringing of conductors is likely to be restored by evening of 13th June, according to Pasighat transmission division-III executive engineer sources.
Meanwhile, 33 KV Rupai Transmission Line has been facilitated to avoid the power crisis. However severe load shedding is troubling consumers of these districts.
