Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) employees have been working day and night to reinstall power lines damaged during the heavy wind and rain that lashed out in many parts of the State in the last few days, Minister for Electricity K. Krishnankutty has said. He was speaking after inaugurating a 33-kV substation at Thumboor on Saturday.
The State government has implemented many development projects in the power sector in the last few years in Thrissur district, including Kunnamkulam 220-kV substation and Mannuthy 110-kV sub station. 64-kV substation at Kodungallur has been upgraded to 110-kV station.
