The Electricity (Amendment) Bill, 2022

The Electricity Amendment Bill 2022 kicked up a ruckus in India after its introduction in the Lok Sabha on 08 August, 2022, during the Monsoon session of the Parliament. As many as 27 lakh power engineers raised their voices against the bill in hopes that it will be retracted by the government. The protests against the Electricity Amendment Bill 2022 are majorly aimed at the privatization of electricity supply in India, which, according to power engineers, will lead to major loss and monopoly in the power industry of the country.
