Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday said the power situation is “very critical” in the entire country even as his cabinet colleague Satyendar Jain claimed that the Delhi government has to depend on costly gas-based power and spot purchase at high market rate as the NTPC has halved electricity supply to the city.
Kejriwal said all efforts were being made to address the power crisis and his government did not want that any “emergency situation” is created.
“The situation is very critical in the entire country. Several chief ministers have written to the Centre about it. All are trying together to improve the situation,” he told mediapersons.
