AnswerAnswer: Option D
Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
220 KV Srinagar-Alusteng-Drass-Kargil-Leh Transmission System completed and dedicated to the public in February 2019. With this, Ladakh got connected to the National Grid and ensured a reliable, quality power supply to the region. Now, power could be supplied even in winters and surplus power can be evacuated from there in summers. This will help in reducing reliance on diesel. It will boost the economy and protect the environment.
