Energy Minister Shrestha directs NEA to keep power supply uninterrupted during Tihar and Chhath

Minister for Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation Birajbhakta Shrestha has directed the Nepal Electricity Authority to make power supply regular and uninterrupted during the festivals of Tihar and Chhath.

Minister Shrestha has asked the authority to forecast and analyze electricity demand and supply during the festival season and make the necessary arrangements. He has also directed it to ensure that electricity is supplied regularly during the festivals.

The minister has also directed preparations be made in advance for managing electricity during the dry season, which begins right after the festivals.

Since demand for electricity rises during Tihar and Chhath, the ministry has issued this directive to the authority to make supply smooth.
