New Delhi: Earlier this week, Shinnyu village, in the Mon district of Nagaland, saw the arrival of electricity for the first time in 24 years. Located along the Indo-Myanmar border, Shinnyu is one of the remotest parts of Nagaland.
Established in 1997, it has now become the first solar-powered village in the state. Around 60 households of the village, a church, a school, a guest house and a community hall have been electrified using solar microgrids set up by the Mon district administration in collaboration with the Global Himalayan Expedition (GHE) an international organisation dedicated to the promotion of solar energy.
