Power Minister Piyush Goyal today announced that an action-oriented committee (AOC) would be set up in Rajasthan to formulate a power project on which the Centre would extend its full support.
The AOC would work on mission mode with speed, on mass scale and better skills to submit the project report for strengthening the existing power establishment and theft free power distribution within three months, Goyal told a press conference here.
He held a high-level meeting with Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje for over three hours.
Goyal also stated that power companies in Rajasthan were facing huge debt burden.
After getting co-operation from public to enable power companies to reduce T&D (transmission and distribution) losses, the state would be able to provide 24x7 power supply to all in next 15 to 18 months, he announced.
