In this situation, emphasis has to be given, how the sick distribution system can be restructured in the context of environment of this country. Here, strong Government commitment can only save the situation. In the context of changing world economic scenario, it is not realistic to continue to accept a situation which is unhealthy and totally unacceptable. On the other hand there is no justification to separate generation from transmission at this moment. Rather, there was no necessity except the necessity of the donors to fulfil their desires and objectives.
Many important issues have to be analyzed before the system is ready for changes.
One most important issue is that, any reform of the existing system should bring benefit to the customers, not sufferings. We have experienced the effect of sudden creation of DESA which could neither contribute to the welfare of the customers nor helped to strengthen the financial position of the utility itself. Rather it is now in a verge of collapse. In fact the changes was made without any firm objective and vision. It is well known that losses in the distribution system is beyond any acceptable limit.
