The Union government has earmarked 150 MW of power for Kerala starting today, citing mismanagement by the state’s ruling Congress-CPM coalition.
The Union government announced today that it will supply 150 megawatts of electricity to Kerala, effective immediately. This allocation is aimed at mitigating the widespread power shortages that have plagued the state over recent months.
Kerala has experienced frequent load shedding, affecting households and businesses alike. The new power input is expected to reduce the frequency of outages and improve grid stability.
The decision follows criticism of the state government’s handling of the power sector, with the central administration attributing the shortages to mismanagement by the ruling Congress-CPM coalition.
The 150 MW will be integrated into the state’s grid through existing transmission infrastructure, and the central government will monitor the impact over the coming weeks.
