Nepal Electricity Authority<\/a> (NEA) is now compelled to consider alternate routes for the 132 KV Butwal-Mainahiya transmission line project as initial choice of Yogikoti-Kotihawa road section of Siddhartha Highway was rejected by the Department of Roads (DoR).<\/p>\n

\"NEA\"<\/p>\n

The NEA had proposed three options for the transmission line project: via Yogikoti-Kotahawa Lakhanchowk<\/strong>, from Yogikoti toward the eastern banks of Tinau River<\/strong>, and via the western part of Tinau River<\/strong>.\u00a0After their first option was rejected, NEA is now considering one of the other two options that they had initially proposed.<\/p>\n

The transmission line project is seen as an important step in rural level development and has been designed targeting electricity supply in Rupandehi district.<\/p>\n

Bhairahawa, Lumbini and a few other areas of Rupandehi district have been facing electricity problem due to lack of sub-station and transmission lines to support the demand. Even the industries in the areas do not have access to the power they need.<\/p>\n

According to Pandey, if the DOR had accepted their proposal, the work would have been completed a lot sooner and with less investment as the distance of Yogikuti-Kotihawa road section to Mainahiya is only 19 kilometers. The NEA had estimated to spend approximately Rs 800 million for this route and set a deadline of 2 years for its completion.<\/p>\n

The NEA has issued a tender notice of Rs 400 million for purchasing four bighas of land for the construction of Mainahiya sub-station and staff quarters. They have estimated a 3 year period for the project to be completed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
