The North Eastern Electric Power Corporation (NEEPCO) with lack of immediate help and expected financial assistance from the Centre fears that the situation of water pipeline burst at its Umangso division to help generate electricity in Kapili power station that was erected way back in 1976 is to go out of hand.
During Durga Puja asthami (eight day) on October when the water pipeline from Umangso hills was lead to burst during three people team inspection on annual repair schedule. Tragically the remains of the inspection team are yet not found after this accident which NEEPCO official confirms.
Now what leaves NEEPCO company under pressure is that the forceful intensity of water sprouted from the damaged pipe is fast loosening the soil and creating threat of huge landslide to the Umrangso hill, driving out people in the area in panic for shelter and security and with more loses to its properties.
Power Station is partially damaged and fears that the wide spread electric towers covered zone to collapse if the flooded speeding water is not taken into control by NEEPCO. The Bhakra Nangal Dam team of experts is expected to arrive soon to handle the situation but still the future is estimated to be bleak. Last year NEEPCO conducted its pipeline repair work but the present ill-fated incident claimed to have occurred due to accident but not out of their negligence.
