States seek additional power as India faces night-time supply squeeze
What the source reported
Source-reportedSeveral Indian states, including Rajasthan and Gujarat, are seeking additional power allocations to manage supply shortages. This situation arises as hydropower output has weakened and maintenance at coal plants reduces electricity availability. Power shortages surged significantly in September due to high demand and low generation rates. The federal government is struggling to meet these requests as much of its available power is already allocated.
