.........2.

distribution companies (DISCOMs), the following steps have been taken by the Government:

- (i) Government of India has taken a joint initiative with State Governments  for preparation of State specific documents  for providing 24x7 Power for All (PFA) to all households/homes, industrial & commercial consumers and adequate supply of power to agricultural consumers.
- (ii) 'Make in India' initiative has been designed to facilitate investment, and build best-in-class manufacturing infrastructure. This initiative may  spur  demand  in  energy  from  manufacturing  sector  and  may lead to higher utilization of Power Generation Capacity.
- (iii) The  Government  has  notified  Ujjwal  Discom  Assurance  Yojana (UDAY) scheme on 20.11.2015 for Operational & Financial Turnaround of   DISCOMs.
- (iv) Two new schemes have been launched by Govt. of India, namely, Deendayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY) and Integrated Power  Development  Scheme  (IPDS)  for strengthening of subtransmission  and  distribution  networks  and  for  segregation  of agricultural feeders to give adequate and reliable power supply and reduce line losses, in rural and urban areas respectively.
- (v) To  revive  and  improve  utilization  of  stranded  gas  based  power generation  capacity  in  the  country,  Government  has  launched  a scheme for utilization of gas based power generation capacity. The scheme  envisages  supply  of  imported  spot Regasified  Liquefied Natural  Gas  (RLNG)  to  the  stranded  gas  based  plants  as  well  as plants receiving domestic gas.
- (vi) A  mobile  application  'VIDYUT  PRAVAH'  has  been  launched  to provide real time information on electricity price and availability on real time basis in the country. This initiative is expected to improve transparency  and  accountability  in  the  matter  of  procurement  of power.
