The annual fair will be held from January 10 to 16 this time.
Millions of people from across the country, most of whom are pilgrims, and some tourists, as well as many foreign tourists, descend on to Sagar Island in the Sundarbans every year.
Doubling the load capacity will result in a smooth power situation during the seven days of the fair, which centres around the ashram of Kapil Muni on the island. Power cuts will be a thing of the past.
The Power Department will also arrange six generators to meet any emergency situation.
As many as 10 centres will be set up inside the Sagar Mela where a total of 50 Power Department officials will be deployed. They would oversee the entire situation, as well as attend to any complaint that may arise within two to three minutes.
There will be an additional deployment of 300 contractual staff. Various electrical apparatuses including high and low-tension wires have also been repaired. UNI
