On 3rd September 2025, a newly constructed Bore-well, the first of its kind with digital operating system at Samtse Throm was inaugurated by His Excellency Lyonpo D.N. Dhungyel, Minister for Ministry of Foreign Affairs and External Trade.
Constructed by M/s Druk Water Solution (DWS) at a cost of Nu. 4.071 million and completed within 55 days, the bore-well will serve as a supplementary water source to Dhamdum Gravity line, especially during the lean season, benefiting about 740 residents daily. It will help ease water shortages until the ongoing flagship transmission line project is completed, which will enable 24/7 supply to Samtse Throm.
The event was attended by Dasho Dzongda, Dzongrab, Dratshang Drungchen, Thromde Ngotshab, and officials from the Dzongkhag Administration.
The Samtse Dzongkhag Administration extends heartfelt appreciation to Hon’ble Lyonpo and all stakeholders for the support in the successful implementation of this project.
