Haryana Seeks Public Hearing on Parallel Power Distribution License Amid Employee Opposition
In Haryana, power employees and farmers' groups oppose the Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission's (HERC) expert committee report recommending a parallel license for private firm Eleven Power in Gurugram and Nuh districts. They threaten an indefinite strike, citing concerns over the company's inexperience and potential revenue loss for state utilities. The Haryana government has requested HERC to hold a public hearing and make the expert report public to ensure transparency before deciding on the petition. The regulator has sought further stakeholder comments and reserved its order.
