Massive Restoration Work Underway in Kashmir Post Snowfall: CM Omar Abdullah

“Over 90% of affected feeders are expected to be operational by evening”

Srinagar: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has assured the people of Kashmir that power restoration efforts are in full swing after the recent snowfall caused widespread disruptions. In a X post, he detailed the current status and ongoing work to address the outages.

“In Kashmir region, 41 feeders at 33 KV level and 739 feeders at 11 KV level are down. None at 132 KV or 220 KV level. Restoration work is underway, and more than 90% feeders are expected to be up and functional by evening today. I’m in regular touch with the PDD team to monitor the situation,” Omar Abdullah wrote.

The snowfall has led to power disruptions at several feeder levels, but the Chief Minister emphasized that there were no outages at the 132 KV or 220 KV levels. Teams from the Power Development Department (PDD) are working tirelessly to restore services, and over 90% of affected feeders are expected to be operational by evening.
