Y.S Ratra, chairman, PSEB, said the board had signed agreement with Parbati Koldam Transmission Company Limited, a joint venture between Reliance Infrastructure Limited and the Power Grid Corporation of India to construct 457 Circuit km of 400 KV transmission line from Parbati Dam to Ludhiana at a cost of Rs 1,000 crore.

The agreement has been signed by H.S Brar, member (Distribution), PSEB, and Ramesh Bahri, director (Projects) of the company.

Brar disclosed that 16,00 MW power would flow from Parbati Dam through these lines and the PSEB would be getting about 200 MW after completion of these lines, which would ease power position in the state.
