Dimapur, Oct. 11: The executive engineer of Dimapur electrical division, Imsenkaba Jamir has informed in a statement that consumers under electrical sub-division No-II, Dimapur will face frequent power interruptions and load shedding because of four-lane works from Purana Bazaar to Chumukedima and IPDS project works.
While speaking to Eastern Mirror, Jamir said that the works were already in progress, which includes, shifting of current utility pole (electric post) away from the national highway road, and changing of power lines.
He mentioned that the load shedding would occur only in the early hours. He added that “sudden power shutdown and interruption will also take place.”
On being asked about the estimated time of completion, the engineer said that a specific time could not be furnished, as the department will face certain problems during the conduct, including ‘dealing with the landowners.’
