NRLDC has accused Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan of ignoring warnings
The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has issued show cause notice to Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab and Rajasthan for violating grid discipline, putting the security of the Northern grid at risk and causing a loss of Rs. 500 crore. It has asked them to appear before it on August 14.
Government sources in the Power Ministry said CERC sought explanations after petitions filed by the Northern Regional Load Despatch Centre accused the four States of violating grid discipline and ignoring the warnings of the regulator as well as the NRLDC. The CERC also ordered its own investigation and sought a detailed report from the Power Grid Corporation of India Limited and Power Systems Operation Co Ltd before the date of hearing.
I believe that the charges should also include hurting the national
pride.
Second drama has started. Will it able to indentify and punish the persons concerned
over coming the pressure from the unions/political parties? Will the media will follow
it up further and inform the public the real culprits.? Perhaps waste of time and
money as long as there is no will power to discipline the persons concerned.
