The power crisis in Punjab

To oppose the agricultural reforms of the Center and then stop the goods trains, the Farmers Union resorted to 'Stop Rail' and the power crisis is inevitable in Punjab.

CHANDIGARH: The power situation has become a power crisis in Punjab due to thermal plants in Punjab, as coal stocks as the movement of coal rakes in the state have remained suspended for about a month, as power cuts have been taking place in the state for nearly a month given farmers' agitation. A few days before Railway Minister Piyush Goyal assured Punjab officials about the safety of trains, he requested Chief Minister Amarinder Singh to intervene to resume them. 

Patiala: Outrageous and "dark" days for power crisis in Punjab. It is facing this because its thermal plants have run out of coal reserves. “We are left with only one-day coal stock. Punjab is suffering financial losses by obtaining power from external sources. We are also experiencing voltage fluctuations. PSPCL Chairman-cum-Managing Director A. Venue Prasad said, "The electricity discount can be achieved virtually internal factors of the height”.

The power crisis in Punjab is inevitable as the farmers' union protested against the Centre's agricultural reforms and Then resorted to 'stop rail', in protest against the halt of goods trains. Although the farmers shifted their protest to the rail track, the trains were halted for two days as the protesters still held private power plants in Mansa and Rajpura, passes were blocking rail traffic. Farmers unions demonstrated on 21st October. Goods train services resumed in the state, announcing an exemption from their week-old 'Stop the Rail' movement on Centre's new agricultural laws.

However, the railways later decided to postpone the operation of goods trains, stating that the farmers are still blocked. Punjab Minister Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa said that the Center is targeting Punjab by suspending goods trains in the state because the farmers and government have planted their opposed anti-farmer laws. Let the Indian authorities go and take a look at whether the farmers are sitting on the railway tracks despite the fact.

Except for a track at Jandiala Guru, where the train will reach Amritsar via Tarn Taran, other trays can be diverted. On the Jalandhar-Pathankot section, in Bathinda and Ferozepur, the tracks have been liberated. "Punjab State Power Corporation Limited Chairman-cum-Managing Director A. Venu Prasad said, one in 5 thermal plants is virtually 'serious'," Mr. Prasad said while speaking to reporters," for the rest of the month. For, there is no movement in coal Racks in the nation and Nabha Thermal in Rajpura and Talwandi Sabar Power Limited in Mansa, has coal stock is eliminated".

“In three one-of-a-kind energy plants, the on-hand inventories will solely last 2-3 days, and for emergency features or quintessential incidents, we have saved it. Due to the situation, we are buying 1,500 MW to 1,700 MW for power exchange, but it is unpredictable, sometimes we receive, sometimes we do not, and at what rate we are going to get, we do not know.  

Mr.Prasad said, 'Whenever we buy electricity from the exchange, we get about Rs. 5-10 crores have to be paid in advance. 'He said that he immediately asked the State Finance Department to release Rs. 200 crores. It has been requested, but they are also facing financial constraints, so, to date, the scenario has assumed a serious ratio.

Therefore, if the current uncertainty persists, electricity boards and electricity consumers may face difficulties. "For the agricultural zone and industry, Mr. Prasad said, due to the reality the cuts have been no longer being made, on the distinct hand, for family categories, minor cuts have been made. And in the coming days, it will depend on whether how the situation is unfolding.

"Also, during the monsoon this year, there has not been enough rainfall and the reservoir water level has gone down. Due to which the hydropower generation has come down ... and if the coal crisis continues, so there are some problems one has to face,” he said.

However, Prasad said, especially the weather conditions at night. Power has decreased due to a change in weather conditions and a fall in temperatures. Daytime demand is around 6,000 to 7,000 MW.
