The spread of electricity supported the Palampur farmers as it helped to change the village’s irrigation system. Persian wheels were historically used by farmers to draw water from wells and irrigate small fields. But after the spread of electricity, these Persian wheels were replaced by electric tube wells. The government constructed the first tube well but the farmers also built private tube wells later resulting in the cultivation of the entire 200 hectares of irrigated land by the 1970s.
