Relinace says it cannot supply power to Dahanu region

Reliance Infra which operates a power plant at Dahanu has pleaded its inability to supply power to the people living around Dahanu taluka owing to the agreement it has reached with the government. 
The company officials made their position clear to Maneesha Chowdhary, Vice President of State Unit of BJP who led a delegation and demanded that the people from around Dahanu should be provided power by Reliance. Officials said as per the agreement reached by the company with the state government and Notification No 91, the entire power generated by Reliance at Dhahanu has to be supplied to Mumbai alone. Chowdhary pointed out to the Government Resolution which has stated that power should be provided to the areas within 5 kms of the power plant. However, the company officials suggested that the way out is to make amendment in the agreement the company has with the government. There is lot of resentment among locals over the power issue who are currently being subjected to long hours of load-shedding. Chowdhary has told the company that even a supply of 25 MW of power could radically improve the situation in the area.
