With southern States in the same boat, Karnataka turns to Assam for power
Facing shortages, Karnataka is buying 100 MW of electricity each day from Assam under the national grid initiative that unifies power supply across states. The move follows similar actions by other southern states, reflecting a broader effort to balance regional demand and supply. Assam’s surplus generation is being redirected to meet Karnataka’s growing consumption needs. This arrangement aims to stabilize the grid and reduce load shedding.
