Sir, fortunately the monsoons have till now been good in almost all parts of the country. As a result of this hydroelectric generation has improved considerably and this coupled with higher thermal generation has led to the improvement in the power availability in the country. A number of States which last year had sezeable power-cuts have removed them completely and amongst these are for example States like Punjab and Haryana. And many Members here from Punjab and Haryana will remember what a difficult time industries in both these States as well as agriculture had last year. In both these States this year there are no power-cuts. Tamil Nadu has also removed all restrictions just now
