Mumbai – Vikran Engineering Limited has successfully commissioned the strategically significant 132 kV Miao–Namsai Transmission Line in Arunachal Pradesh. The project marks a key milestone in strengthening power transmission infrastructure in the North Eastern Region and supports the development of a more resilient and reliable electricity network.
The project comprises 40.630 kilometres of transmission line and 138 tower foundations, including two highly challenging pile foundations executed under difficult geological conditions. Successfully delivering the project across one of India’s most demanding terrains underscores Vikran Engineering’s engineering excellence, technical expertise, and execution capabilities.
Recognising its strategic importance for strengthening Arunachal Pradesh’s power infrastructure, the project was closely monitored by the Ministry of Power, Government of India, throughout its execution.
The commissioning of the transmission line is expected to significantly strengthen the power supply network in Arunachal Pradesh, improve the reliability of the existing transmission system, connect remote areas to the National Grid, and facilitate the evacuation and integration of upcoming hydropower projects across the Northeastern Region (NER). The project will play an important role in enhancing energy accessibility while supporting the region’s long-term economic growth and infrastructure development.
