New Delhi: Union Power Minister R K Singh on Tuesday said in the Rajya Sabha that state government departments owe about Rs 41,700 crore to power distribution companies and asked states to ensure payments are made on time.
The minister also informed that aggregate technical and commercial (AT&C) losses have come down to about 18 per cent from 22 per cent.
“As a result of UDAY, some improvement has happened. The losses in AT&C have come down from 22 per cent to about 18 per cent. So there has been some progress, though the progress could have been better,” Singh said.
