India's Republic Day Parade Highlights and CERC's Renewable Transmission Proposal Discussed

The Indian Express covers two distinct topics: the upcoming Republic Day parade, highlighting India's military display post-Operation Sindoor with indigenous defense platforms showcased in battle formations, and the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission's (CERC) proposal to revise transmission connectivity rules for renewable energy projects. The latter suggests granting connectivity only with signed power purchase agreements to optimize infrastructure use, but faces opposition from private developers concerned about project delays and market impacts amid significant renewable capacity lacking PPAs.
