INDIAN FUN 1

Sandeep: Delhi is going to supply electrical power to Mumbai
Rakesh: But Delhi doesn't have any power for itself, all we have are power cuts.
Sandeep: No problem we'll supply Mumbai by power cuts


Sad background:
Delhi in the hot season is lacking 600 MW of electrical power. Which results in daily power cuts for 1- 2 hours during night and/or day times. A fact tourist do not remark since hotels and other touristic areas have power generators (a very expensive, low efficient solution)
Maharsta (Mumbai is the capital) is missing 6400 MW of electrical power, since Mubai as a capital is proirized, it is mainly Pune and Nashik suffering from daily power cuts for hours, forcing each houshold to purchase expensive inverters ( a battery inverter combination to make out of 12 V DC, 220 V AC)
Since 6400 MW requires 6 big nuclear power plants and there is not even a sign of planning for that it may take another decade before the problem can be overcome.
Maybe Jacques Rogge should read from time to time Indian newspapers before he recommend India for Olympic games
