Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal has sanctioned Rs 1094.10 crore for augmentation and strengthening of electricity supply in Jammu and Kashmir under two different Centrally Sponsored Schemes, which were meant separately for rural and urban areas of the state. A major part of the amount under two schemes has been released, and the remaining funds would come once the Utilisation Certificates (UCs) for works undertaken in the power sector are submitted to the Union Ministry.
Nearly 50 per cent of the amount has been released by the Power Ministry.
