Comments:
It is a welcome move from the Govt. side.But subsequent to this hearing
Govt.must resolve the impediments the Power Sector is facing. It is too
long a waiting for the sector to take off.Similar way Govt must take
some quick initiative to resolve the coal linkage issues.Any delay to
adress Power Sector issues may result in further reduction of growth
from 5%.
