At the beginning of its evolutionary development, only the energy of muscles was accessible for human beings. Later on a man learned to get and to use the energy of the fire. New round of evolutionary development of the humankind brought a possibility to use the energy of water and wind. The discovery of new energy sources at the initial stage of evolutionary development of the humankind went on in the complicated ways: either by a lucky chance or due to the scientist of genius or the discovery performed over a significant period. In the XVIII century, a steam engine invented. XIX century marked by the appearance of electricity: voltaic arc was opened, electric lighting, electric motor and electric generator. XX century was a century of a true revolution in the development of ways and methods of generation and usage of energy. Powerful systems of oil and gas supply were appearing at the same time. Discovery of electricity propel the human civilization, and modernized the whole era in true sense. In present time, electricity is perquisite for economic growth and human development. It requires for almost all type of basic needs e.g cooking, lighting, mobility, communication, pumping of water, entertainment, agriculture etc. Absence of access to electricity services deprives people from the bare minimum living standard, it constrains generation of productive activities, incomes and employment in rural areas. Government of India and Jharkhand Government strive hard to provide electricity to all villages of Jharkhand by December 2018. There are several villages in Latehar and Garhwa district of Jharkhand still not electrified and villagers are residing in dark era. This Plan deals with the remote and rural villages of Latehar and Garhwa district comes under Palamu Tiger Reserve. Due to geographical, social and wildlife / Forest issues, these villages/helmets are still not electrified. ii This plan has been prepared after intensive field survey for getting proper route alignment for electrification so that it put minimum impact of biodiversity and wildlife of Palamu Tiger Reserve. Many discussions has been held for the purpose with Field Director Palamu Tiger Reserve, Deputy Director Palamu Tiger Reserve, North & South Division, General Manager, Electric Supply Medninagr, Electrical Superintendent Engineer, Electic Supply, Medninagar & Electrical Executive Engineer Latehar & other field staff including various stakeholders operating in the area. Direction & suggestions given by higher authorities are incorporated in this plan. We pay sincere thanks to Shri Rahul Purwar I.A.S. Managing Director, JBVNL, Shri. Mohanlal, I.F.S., C.C.F & Field Director Palamu Tiger Reserve, Shri. M.P. Singh, I.F.S, Former A.P.C.C.F & Field Director Palamu Shri A.K. Mishra, I.F.S., Deputy Director, North Division, PTR, Shri Mahaling, I.F.S, Deputy Director, South Division, PTR, Shri N.P. Sinha, G.M., Electric Supply Medininagar, Shri B.S. Pal, Superintendent Engineer, Electric Supply Medininagar, Shri H.P. Baranwal, Executive Engineer, Electric Supply Division Latehar and their staff for directions, valuable suggestions and cooperation in course of preparation of this plan. At last but not the least, our thanks extend to field surveyors and villagers residing in and around the Palamu Tiger Reserve for their support in gathering information on various issues related to the electrification, Palamu Tiger Reserve and forest around.
