Initially, the scheme started
with peoples’ participation. Afterwards, Government has decided
to give 100 % grant
An innovative scheme to make
available 24 hours three phase quality power supply to Rural
areas
Feeders having Specially Design
Transformers to supply power to farmers residing in scattered
farm houses
All the existing electrified
Villages (18000) and Petaparas (9700) are covered under JGY
within 30 months
Average expenditure per Village
is Rs.6.72 Lacs
Total expenditure of the scheme
is Rs. 1290 Crores, Out of which, Rs. 1115 Crores is grant from
GOG
Reduction in Distribution
Losses by 3.74% and T/C failure by 1.17% during the year
2005-2006 compared to year 2004-05.
Quantum of work executed
JGY Feeders --1847
HT line --56307 KMs
LT line --22146 KMs
Nos of new Transformer
Center --18724
Nos of Special Design
Transformer installed --3062
Nos of Poles erected -- 17
Lacs
Thus the scheme offers numerous advantages:
Reduction in
Distribution Loss and Distribution Transformer Failure
Rate.
Promotion of industrial
and commercial activities in villages leading to local
employment generation;
Buoyant revenue through
prevention of power theft.
Improved standards of
living in rural areas on account of access to a wide
variety of goods and instruments;
Enhanced exposure of
rural population to different parts of the world through
electronic media, leading to updating of knowledge
avenues;
Impact on quality of
education;
Improved of health
services and sanitation facilities;
Reduction in migration
from rural areas to urban areas.
Regulated but improved
quality power supply to agriculture enabled efficient
and optimum use of water, which in turn contributes to
conservation of ground water resources.
Speedy restoration of
power supply due to parallel network in case of
disruption.
