ADC Sadar Hills former executive member, BP Vikas Basnet provided a 25KV transformer to the people of Gorkha Tapon in the Irang Part-II area on Wednesday.
According to the Gorkha Tapon Village secretary, Man Kumar Thapa, Gorkha Tapon in the Irang Part-II area has been facing total blackout for many months as the only transformer in the area was damaged and it was unrepairable.
He said that people of the area have been seeking assistance from every corner but nothing could be sorted out and remained without electricity supply for the past many months.
However, the former local ADC Sadar Hills member, BP Vikas Basnet, on learning the situation of the area, personally visited and assured to provide a new transformer, he added.
He continued that within a week, Basnet found all possible means to provide a new transformer in the area and the people are immensely happy to get a new transformer especially during the Durga Puja festival.
