The vehicles were flagged off in the presence of Chief Engineer (Distribution) Er. Arshad Hussain Reshi; Chief Engineer (Planning & Procurement) Er. Vijay Kumar Balmotra and Technical Officer to Managing Director JPDCL Er. Anil Verma.
The initiative aims to equip field personnel engaged in electrical maintenance, fault restoration and other operational activities with the requisite safety gear and equipment for carrying out their duties safely and efficiently and minimise the accidents during the maintenance activities.

The Managing Director further directed the concerned officers to ensure that the safety equipment reaches the field staff in a timely manner and that its availability and proper usage are regularly monitored at all levels.
The flagging-off of the vehicles marks another important initiative by JPDCL towards creating a safer working environment for its field personnel and reinforcing a culture of safety across the Corporation.
