He said that the other feeder where the first phase of the scheme has been completed are Dabri feeder of Karnal constituency covering the Dabri village, and Galib Kheri feeder of Nilokheri constituency covering the village of Galib Kheri, Chander Khera and Dayalpur.
Under the scheme, the activities of accurate meter reading with replacement of old meters and shifting of the meters outside the premises, providing new connections on the spot and replacement of normal wires with Aerial Bunched Cable is undertaken in all these villages.
