Triveni Synthetic Yarn Industries Resumes Power Supply After Settling Electricity Dues
Kathmandu, Nov. 7 — A significant development has taken place in the industrial sector of Nepal as the Triveni Synthetic Yarn Industries, located in the Bara-Parsa industrial corridor, successfully settled the first installment of its electricity dues. This move marks a crucial step in restoring power supply to the facility, which had been disconnected earlier this month.
The industry made the payment to the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) on Thursday, according to Manoj Silwal, the Executive Director of the NEA. The payment was part of an agreement to resolve outstanding electricity bills, which had led to the disconnection of power on October 21. Following the settlement, the power supply to the factory was restored on the same day, ensuring minimal disruption to operations.
This development highlights the importance of timely payments for maintaining uninterrupted services, especially for industries that rely heavily on consistent energy supply. The Triveni Synthetic Yarn Industries, being a key player in the textile manufacturing sector, plays a vital role in the local and national economy. Its ability to resume operations quickly is a positive sign for the region’s industrial growth.
