*The central government extended the additional quota till June 2025 within a week*
*Chief Minister Dhami expresses gratitude to the Prime Minister & Union Energy Minister*
Dehradun: The people of the state will now get uninterrupted electricity even in winters. The centre government has increased the additional power quota allocated to Uttarakhand by 180 MW and has also extended its time period till 30 June 2025. On September 26, 300 MW additional power was allocated to Uttarakhand by the Center till 31 March 2025. Thus, now Uttarakhand will get a total of 480 MW additional power from the central pool. Chief Minister (CM) Pushkar Singh Dhami has expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji and Union Energy Minister Manohar Lal Khattar for this.
Uttarakhand’s Chief Minister Dhami had met Union Energy Minister Manohar Lal Khattar to get rid of the power crisis in the state and requested to allocate additional power to Uttarakhand from the central pool. CM Dhami told the Union Minister that the gap between demand and availability of electricity in the state is continuously increasing. To increase power generation, the state government is working on a long-term plan for power generation from solar energy, hydro power and coal.
On the effective advocacy of Chief Minister Dhami, the Center has increased the quota of additional electricity for Uttarakhand. Due to snowfall and other reasons in winter, the fall in the production of hydropower projects often affects the power supply in the state. Now with the increase in the additional quota from the central pool, consumers will get uninterrupted electricity even in winters.
