The model state electricity distribution management responsibility Bill looks good on paper but lacks in teeth
Pictorially, the idea of a model State Electricity Distribution Management Bill, 2013 can be described as a bulb being lit up on the head of the power ministry, except that the bulb itself is a fused one. In drafting the bill the ministry has repackaged a number of older norms, added a few and has presented it as a new Bill.
