UDHAMPUR, March 12, 2026: In a decisive move to modernize the regional energy grid, Deputy Commissioner Minga Sherpa today officially inaugurated the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS-ED) in Udhampur.

Addressing media representatives during the launch, the Deputy Commissioner highlighted that a specialized centralized operations team has been working for over a year on a comprehensive strategy designed to drastically reduce technical and commercial losses within the power sector.
