( SHRI  R. K. SINGH )

(a) & (b) : No, Madam.  As reported by States, there is only a marginal demandsupply gap of only 0.7% in terms of energy and 2.0% in terms of peak in the country during the current financial year (up to January, 2018). The State-wise details of demand and supply of power during the current year (April, 2017- January, 2018) are given at Annex.

(c) to (e) : Central Government have drawn up a joint initiative with respective State Governments for preparation of State specific plans for providing 24x7 Power for  All  (PFA)  to  all  households/homes,  industrial  &  commercial  consumers  and adequate  supply  of  power  to  agricultural  consumers  as  per  State  Policy.  The roadmap for all the States/UTs has been finalized and is under implementation.

These documents contain the details of funds requirement for various activities required to achieve 24x7 Power for All within the States / UTs. Electricity is a concurrent subject. Therefore, the funds would be arranged by the States / UTs from their own resources, loans from financial Institutions including from REC and PFC and also through schemes of Government of India like Deendayal Upadhyaya Gram  Jyoti  Yojana  (DDUGJY),  Integrated  Power  Development  Scheme  (IPDS)  & Power System Development Fund (PSDF).
