  • In the intro, mention the inability of Discoms to meet the UDAY objectives on time.
  • In the body, mention high AT&C losses, delays in tariff revision, diversion of funds meant for capital expenditure to service debt, higher tariff PPAs etc. Measures could be the privatisation of discoms, pre-paid metering, separation of agri-feeders, measuring agri-consumption etc.
  • Conclude by mentioning the importance of solving the woes of the discoms to make the power sector efficient.
