To provide electricity to the farmers at a concessional rate 15 Subsidy of thousand crores is given.

All three companies 212 More than thousand crores are in loss. The Department of Energy is trying to reduce this amount. Minister of State OPS Bhadauria raised the issue of non-recovery of bills.

First the functioning of the department and power companies should be fixed. Many people have questioned this. – Yashodhara Raje Scindia, Minister of Technical Education
