Creation of a new Operation Circle of Distribution Company – UHBVN in Kaithal

Since inception of Haryana on Ist November, 1966 upto September, 2007 (when Randeep Singh Surjewala became Power Minister), Kaithal District did not have a circle office of Distribution Company – UHBVN. Superintending Engineer of UHBVN continued to have his circle office in Kurukshetra City. For all small and sundry needs, people of District Kaithal were constrained to travel to the circle office in Kurukshetra.

One of the first decisions taken by Randeep Singh Surjewala as Power Minister was to create a new circle of UHBVN at Kaithal. Resultantly, office of Superintending Engineer, the two divisions headed by Executive Engineers and all sundry offices are now situated in Kaithal City thereby bringing all facilities to the doorsteps of people of the District under one roof and finally resolving their long standing demand.

Construction of 'Rajiv Gandhi Vidyut Bhawan' by UHBVN

UHBVN had over half a dozen offices scattered in different parts of Kaithal city leading to major inconvenience and commutation problems to general public.

With a view to consolidate all electricity offices under one roof, Kaithal MLA, Randeep Singh Surjewala (who was then Power Minister) laid the foundation stone for a landmark building named as ‘Rajiv Gandhi Vidyut Bhawan’ at the centre of the city i.e. Pehowa Chowk on 31-12-2008.

This useful office complex stands constructed at a cost of Rs.525 lakh and is operational. All the offices of UHBVN i.e. SE, Operation Circle; XEN, Operation Division, Kaithal; SDO, Sub Urban Sub Division No.1, Kaithal; SDO, Sub Urban Sub Division No.2, Kaithal; SDO City Sub Division No.1, Kaithal and SDO, City Sub Division No.2, Kaithal have been consolidated in this complex.

Construction of 'Transformer Repair Workshop'

A workshop to repair damaged transformers is lifeline of any area for speedy replacement, particularly in times of urgency like damaged transformers for domestic supply in urban or rural areas as also for farmers during crop season. Presently, all transformers of Kaithal Circle are being sent to Transformer Repair Workshop at Ambala for repair causing delay in transportation and general inconvenience. To address this primary issue, Kaithal MLA & Cabinet Minister, Randeep Singh Surjewala (who was than Power Minister) laid foundation stone of a ‘Transformer Repair Workshop’ on 30-05-2009 to be constructed in the premises of 220KV Sub Station at Titram, Kaithal at a cost of Rs.310 lakh. Work is likely to be completed shortly.

Two New 220 KV Electricity Sub Stations

For decades, entire Kaithal District was served by one 220 KV Sub Station, Titram, Kaithal constructed and inaugurated in 1987 by the then Power Minister Ch. Shamsher Singh Surjewala. Kalayat portion of District Kaithal was, however, served by 220 KV Sub Station, Narwana also constructed and inaugurated by Ch. Shamsher Singh Surjewala during his tenure as Power Minister in 1985-86.

Pursuant thereto, successive governments did not add any 220 KV Sub Station in Kaithal District despite multifold increase in demand. Kaithal MLA & Cabinet Minister, Randeep Singh Surjewala (who was then Power Minister) addressed this issue on priority.

Two new 220 KV Sub Stations were constructed, details of which are as follows:-
