Dhanbad, June 17: Branded one of the most of the polluted cities of the country, Dhanbad lacks even the most basic civic infrastructure. A faulty drainage system, erratic power supply, ill-planned colonies, shortage of drinking water and diminishing employment opportunities typify the coal capital.
Union Minister of State for Coal, Shree Prakash Jaiswal fired another salvo at the UP government for dragging its feet on sanctioning land for the proposed power projects in Kanpur Dehat. He also criticised the governments of some coal producing states for failing to control law and order, which has hit production adversely.
LUCKNOW: As if the prevailing power crisis following tripping of thermal power units in the state was not enough, employees of UP Power Corporation (UPPCL) threatened of going on a two-day strike beginning Tuesday in protest against proposed privatisation of power distribution in Kanpur.
Meena Menon MUMBAI: The government thrust to increase the use of renewable energy has put power utilities in a fix as there is just not enough installed capacity to meet the new six per cent norm mandated by the Maharashtra Energy Regulatory Commission(MERC).
The state power utility will have to procure over 7 million units of solar power from next year under the regulations framed by the State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC) to promote green energy.
