India has come a long way since the early-90s in power sector growth and development. The last two decades have seen an accretion of power generation capacity from 69,352 MW to more than 185,000 MW — more than 150%. On paper, this looks impressive. But in practical terms, India has failed to bridge the demand-supply gap in these 20 years. Even now, it won’t be incorrect to label India as a power-starved State.
