Reply from CM's office and Power/Electricity Minister's office.

Nandu:

I think I told you in a previous message that I have sent couple of messages to Kerala government - one to the CM and one to the Minister of Electricity/Power- and that I would let you know if I got any replies.

Well I did get replies from both Chief Minisiter Nayanar's office and the State Electricity Ministry today. My email to the Chief Minister was about 'corruption' in the State and its economic and social consequences and the email to the Electricity people dealt mainly with the Kayamkulam Power Project and things in general about the power shortage in the state. Here they are:-

1)From CM's office

Thank you verymuch for your compliment. Government of Kerala is taking necessary measures to irradicate corruption. It is happy to note that corruption in Government Service has reduced considerably as a result of the measures now taken.

Yours faithfully,

E.K.Nayanar

2)Minsitry of Power/Electricity

Dear Sir,

May we first apologies for the delay in getting back to you. We had encountered some system problems for the last three days which caused the delay.

Kayamkulam project is undertaken by NTPC and KSEB is a buyer of the power from from this project. Recently the 350 MW project at Kayamkulam had been commissioned. The commissioning of the next phase is linked with the installation of the gas terminal at Cochin. Once this is
completed, a 250 MW capacity plant would be set up at Kayamkulam. The Kozhikode Diesel Power Project is under the close monitoring of KSEB and this plant will be commissioned this month itself. The private power project at Cochin has also been commissioned. Along with this, a series of mini hydro power stations will be commissioned within the coming two-year period. With the commissioning of the Kozhikode plant itself the State will be at a position to produce surplus power.

At present, the state is not facing a crisis in power generation, rather there is an acute shortage of transmission facilities. A series of substations, around 50 in number with varying capacities ranging from 33KV and above will be installed within the first half of the year 2000. Within the coming two year period, the state is to achieve not only self-sufficiency in power generation but would have substantially upgraded the transmission facilities.

Thank You
