New Delhi A14: The central government has assured that all measures have been taken to ensure that the power supply is not affected by the shortage of coal.
In the following days, the supply will be increased to two million tonnes per day. In addition, the railways have been directed to provide more rakes to supply fuel to power plants.
Coal and Power Ministries Secretaries have made presentations to the PMO and said measures have been taken to ensure no power outages occur. On the other hand, state governments have been told not to make profits by selling electricity at barter premiums and then cutting power in their states.
Stocks have been rising for the past four days. With the enhanced supply, the situation is expected to become normal within a month, a government official said. Coal India has increased its supply to 1.9 million tonnes and is expected to increase it to 2 million tonnes every day from next week
