    BIRATNAGAR:

    gridNepal Electricity Authority has halted power supply to the eastern region indefinitely from Tuesday after the control room of NEA’s Duhabi grid was submerged due to incessant rain. Prakash Narayan Singh, chief at Duhabi Grid, said, “Power supply cannot resume until the water level recedes.” Duhabi Grid receives 80 MW from India’s Kataiya and 25 MW from the Central Transmission Line and distributes power in the east. Singh said it was dangerous even from the security point of view to supply power.
