Draft Electricity (Amendment) Bill: Limited remit makes proposals doable

Changes to the Electricity Act, 2003 have been put out in the public domain for comments. The current version was in the making for at least two years now. Successive prior attempts did not see the light of day. The present changes are less ambitious on the remit and hence perhaps more implementable. Whether it is adequate to address the issues of the power sector is the moot question though, and answers on that are less than clear.
