Aiming to fast track the solarisation of irrigation pumpsets and feeders, Energy Minister K J George inspected the areas that have been identified to set up the feeders.
George visited Mudhadi, Rangenahalli and Chikkur villages in Arasikere. Speaking after the inspection, he said that these projects will enhance localised power generation and provide farmers access to uninterrupted power supply.
While BESCOM, CESCOM and HESCOM have already identified land for the project, the other electricity supply companies are in the process of identification, he said.
