Lack of land hampering Tangedco sub-station projects, says TN electricity minister

The minister said the Tangedco was unable to set up sub-stations as it could not get sufficient land in North Chennai.

Chennai: The non-availability of land in North Chennai has been hindering the establishment of power sub-stations in the locality, electricity minister P. Thangamani has claimed in the Assembly on Wednesday.

Responding to an issue raised in the Assembly House by the DMK member Sekhar Babu, the minister said the Tangedco was unable to set up sub-stations as it could not get sufficient land in North Chennai.

Nevertheless, steps were being taken to ensure uninterrupted power supply in the city. Taking into account the city’s requirement, it has been planned to establish sub-station at Koyambedu, he said.
