Punjab water supply and sanitation minister Bikram Singh Majitha dedicated a 66-kv power sub-station to over a dozen villages falling in the Srihargobindpur area today.
Built at the cost of Rs 4.50 crore in Rajoya village, the sub-station would supply electricity to 13 villages. The minister said the government had a target for setting up 110 sub-stations. Out of these, construction work was on at 55 sites.
He also said power shortage in the state would be met with the setting up of more power projects in the years to come. The minister also laid the foundation stone of a school building in the village. He criticised the Punjab Congress for being mum over the sky-rocketing prices of the commodities, which have disturbed the “kitchen budget”.
