Raipur, Nov 2025 : A major achievement has been recorded in strengthening the power distribution system in Kondagaon district under the Chief Minister’s Power Infrastructure Development Scheme. As per the directions of Forest Minister Shri Kedar Kashyap and Vice Chairperson of Bastar Development Authority & Kondagaon MLA Ms. Lata Usendi, significant steps have been taken to reinforce the district’s electricity network.

Recently, the capacity of the 3.15 MVA power transformer at the 33/11 kV Vishrampuri substation in Kondagaon district has been upgraded to 5 MVA. This will ensure uninterrupted and high-quality power supply, especially for agricultural consumers in the region.
