India power shortages

In a press release, power expert Shankar Sharma of the MGP said: "The government has declared there will be a 12-hour power cut daily in rural areas, 4 hours in urban areas and one hour in Bangalore. We have filed a complaint before the KERC stating this discriminatory policy violates Article 14 of the Constitution that deals with equality before law. We have asked the power regulator not to allow implementation of this policy." He reasons: Electricity consumers across the state pay the same charges.
