The ongoing crisis in the Power Sector is grave but not untenable. Despite hiccups, the sector still remains a veritable gold mine beckoning many a treasure hunter. S.D. Khan takes a look.
Triumph and tribulation are integral parts of our lives. But the Indian Power Sector has lately witnessed too much of the latter. On the one hand there is the Centre's growing thrust on pushing the power generation by a monumental 76,000 MW, while on the other hand, a lot of challenges like fuel shortages, increasing coal prices, land acquisition and environmental clearances, need to be tackled deftly.

And as the country inches forward, these stakeholders are rubbing their hands in anticipation and looking forward to a level playing field.
