Rakesh Syal July 01, 2006

Thank you so much friends for your kind words and your concern about the power shortage overhere!
The problem is, due to the absence of rains and scorching heat the domestic demand increases, [lot of airconditioning etc.] and power is required more for irrigation purposes. More demand less supply. Situation will improve only after rains.
