DIMAPUR, SEPTEMBER 25 (MExN): The Jalukie Town Ward Chairman Union (JTWCU) has reminded the Power Department that Jalukie Town is in dire need for an up-gradation of power supply. “With the rapid increase in population and settlement, the power supply at present is insufficient and for which the population of Jalukie Town is facing untold misery,” the Union said in a letter to the Chief Engineer (D&R), Power Department today. It informed that the union had appealed to the Engineer (Electrical) Peren and SDO (Electrical) Jalukie to upgrade the transformer of Jalukie Town several times “and in response of our appeal the Executive Engineer has given the proposal for up-gradation of the transformer to 2.5MVA at Jalukie Town.” It therefore asked the department to do the necessary at the earliest and upgrade the transformer before November 2016.
