Nearly 90 percent of electricity has been restored in the Sopore areas of North Kashmir’s Baramulla district, officials said on Sunday.
“It was a strenuous effort by the officials of the power development department that ensured restoration of electricity in entire Sopore division after the valley witnessed outages due to continuous snowfall from last three days,” an official said.
He said that for the first time that the PDD department was able to restore the power supply within the shortest possible time of 10-hours.
“The PDD linemen despite all odds are working tirelessly; it was because of their efforts that around Sunday noon 90 percent of supply in the Sopore division was restored,” the official said.
