Dimapur, Nov. 20 (EMN): It would appear that for the next three days, a powerless Kohima would be following the charred footsteps of its snarling, long-suffering sibling who responds to the name of Dimapur.
Even as residents of Dimapur town, in recent times, have been made to suffer powerless hours in the aftermath of a mysterious fire charring a power transformer at Nagarjan sub-station, the department in concern has informed about a three-hour blackout in Kohima, among other locations, for three consecutive days.
“It is for information of all concerned that department is taking up strengthening and stringing of new bus bar at 132/33/11kV Sub-station at Kohima. The department of Power is therefore compelled to take total shutdown of power supply from 6 am to 9 am w.e.f 21.11.2017 to 23.11.2017.
“All consumers in Kohima town and adjoining areas, Peren district and Medziphema area are requested to extend co-operation and bear with the inconvenience,” stated a press release from the executive engineer of the transmission division of Kohima on Monday.
