Kathmandu, Oct 9: Works for upgrading and strengthening capacity of the Matatirtha-Syuchatar 132-kV transmission line are going on in a bid to ensure reliable, high-quality and sustainable power supply in the Kathmandu Valley.

The secretariat of the Minister for Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation, Biraj Bhakta Shrestha, informed that electricity supply in the Kathmandu Valley could be affected on Saturday and Sunday because old wires and conductors were being replaced with new, high-capacity cables.
