    Trishuli Hydropower of 21 megawatt and Devighat Hydropower of 14 megawatt started power generation after carrying out some maintenance works.

    Likewise, Chilime Hydrpower of Rasuwa district has begun partial power generation after some repairs. Out of 21 megawatt of its capacity, Chilime Hydrpower has generated 11 megawatt at present.

    However, electricity supply in the villages is still facing hardships due to problems in the electric equipments and damage in the houses.
