Almost all villages under Barnawapara Wildlife Sanctuary, located around 100 kms away from here, are now electrified by CREDA under the remote village electrification programme, he informed.
The agency has also involved local villagers to facilitate proper functioning and maintenance of solar set-ups installed in their respective areas.
In all these places where the solar set-ups have been installed, a villager has been appointed as local operator. To fix technical problems, the agency also employs a technician who serves a cluster of 10-15 villages, while major snags are resolved by CREDAs experts, Gyani said.
The capacity of the solar set-ups of some villages has been enhanced after sensing the growing demand for power and efforts are on to increase it further in other villages, he added. PTI TKP GK RT
