Power generation dipping every month
The country's electricity generation is diminishing every month, belying the authorities' much-trumpeted assurance that power supply situation would improve from May with the end of irrigation season. Frequency of outages throughout the country has been on the rise as the Power Development Board rather added less electricity to national grid in May than in June, PDB data showed. The interim government time and again said that they would be able to save on electricity when irrigation pumps would be shut from May and so-called rental power plants would come into operation.
