This is not a good time to invite the Power Secretary to attend conferences outside Delhi. With Telengana-induced coal shortages, his presence is constantly required in the Capital.
Secretary Umashankar agreed to address a Chennai conference on power sector organised by the CII, over the video. Because of the poor quality of line, the audience only see a grainy, motionless picture of the Secretary on the screen, though his speech came across clearly. Ironical, that only a few days ago India sent up a satellite that could peer beneath clouds and picture the earth below, but could not organise a video link between Delhi and Chennai?
