While reviewing the works of the power department Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel had instructed to carry out power supply works for agriculture with top priority. Accordingly in order to ensure quality power supply for agriculture works CSPC Chairman Subrat Sahoo and other senior officials from Operations and Maintenance department are continuously monitoring.
