Shri Ashok Rao explains that various measures taken in the name of ‘reforms’ of discoms are actually going to financially weaken them. The real objective is to privatise them. Electricity is today a human right at par with food and health care and is a public service. When private sector is introduced, public services get divided into “for profit” for those who can afford and those who cannot are left without power.
