NEW DELHI, Mar 2: The Delhi government on Sunday held a meeting with the Power department and officials of the power companies operating in Delhi to ensure “uninterrupted” power supply in Delhi during the summer season this year.
“Delhi Power Minister Ashish Sood held an important meeting with senior officials of energy and power companies at the Delhi Secretariat. In the meeting, senior officials were directed to implement the Summer Action Plan 2025 in Delhi with immediate effect,” an official statement from the Government of Delhi stated.

The stakeholders were instructed to begin immediate implementation of the Summer Action Plan 2025. He emphasized that ensuring uninterrupted power supply for all residents across Delhi is a key agenda of the Delhi government.
Sood also mentioned the vision of developing a model colony in Delhi where overhead power cables are not hanging and all wires are properly organised. He further stated that discussions were held with officials regarding removing any unauthorised cables or wires of other companies from electricity poles to reduce the load on the poles and eliminate tangled wiring.
Additionally, the Power Minister instructed officials to ensure that if any power grid fails in any part of Delhi, repairs must be completed within a maximum of five minutes to prevent any disruption in electricity supply to residents.
He also said that review meetings of the Power Department will be held every 15 days to assess the progress on decisions taken in previous meetings and ensure their implementation.
