New Delhi: Due to the efforts of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, Rajasthan will receive an additional 265 MW of electricity. Union Energy Minister ML Khattar has approved the allocation from the unallocated pool. In a meeting in New Delhi, attended by Birla, Khattar, Rajasthan Energy Minister Heeralal Nagar, and Energy Secretary Pankaj Agarwal, discussions focused on various Energy Dept schemes and projects.
