In West Bengal, due to stagnation in the industrial sector, more electricity is sold in Bangladesh!

West Bengal plans to export more electricity in Bangladesh Which provoked new controversy Electricity in the industrial sector in West Bengal due to stagnation? Will the state of the debt have enough income to sell electricity?

The question is, how will you see half the glass water? Half of the filling, or half empty? In the same way, in the state of West Bengal, electricity surplus was seen by many people. Someone thinks pride is proud and proud. Someone thinks that the stagnation in the industrial sector is actually the reason for the power surplus.

Khabar, West Bengal has planned, a large part of their surplus electricity will be sold to Bangladesh. Already, West Bengal has met with the central government. In fact, West Bengal still exports nearly 250 MW of electricity to Bangladesh. West Bengal Power Minister Sobhanadev Chattopadhyay has recently conveyed the need for supplying 1000 MW of power to Bangladesh in a conference. He said, "We have already made an appeal to the Center in this regard. If all goes well, then we can quickly sell excess electricity to Bangladesh. "

At present, there are five operational thermal power stations in West Bengal. Almost six thousand megawatts of electricity are generated in Kolaghat, Bakreshwar, Bandel, Sagardighi and Santaldi thermal power plants. There are also several hydroelectric projects and environmentally friendly alternatives to energy production. The condemners complain that although there is enough electricity, there is no way to spend electricity in West Bengal. Because, in the industrial sector, West Bengal is still much behind the rest of the country. In the Left Government and Mamta Bandyopadhyay's time, there was no improvement in the industrial sector of West Bengal. Although the Mamta Government promised to bring big industries repeatedly, it did not succeed in the workplace. As a result, the cost of electricity has not been created.

Pictures of the rest of the kingdom but others are different. Electricity is not surplus in the Indian context, but there is a deficit. The deficit amount is about 1 percent annually. In the industrial-friendly state like Uttar Pradesh, the deficit ratio is about 4.1 percent annually. If you keep an eye on the big cities, it can be seen that in the city of capital Delhi, the annual electricity shortage is about 0.5 percent. It increases from time to time.

In West Bengal, the picture is completely different. And that is why West Bengal wants to sell electricity in the neighboring country. When contacted, Dr Dilip Vell, senior leader of Trinamool Congress, Nirvida Rai, said, "If such a decision has been made, then he should be welcomed. This will mean the financial benefits of West Bengal on the one hand and on the other hand the neighboring state will also benefit. Bangladesh is not just our neighbor, it is part of Greater Bengal. Our relationship with them is always good. This step will be another milestone. "But he avoided the political question. He did not agree to discuss the situation in West Bengal.

The CPM Politburo member and MP Mohammad Selim have naturally criticized the issue. He said in Deutsche Welle, "It was once said that there is no factory in West Bengal due to lack of electricity. For a long time the Left Front has increased power generation in the state. And he also tried to make that new factory from the electricity. But the present government could not accept any policy on the industry, this is its proof. It is said, millions of crores of rupees are invested in the industrial sector. In fact, that is not the case, the power sale plan is its proof. This will damage the state further. "

It may be mentioned that the proposal to invest 2 lakh 35 thousand crores in the Bengal Summit last year came as the state government had said. His previous year was estimated at 200,000 50 thousand. During the inauguration of the Bengal Summit this year, the Chief Minister said that 50 percent of last year's investment is in progress. But critics say, nothing is clear about where it is going, how it is going, who is investing. In West Bengal, if the investment of industrial investment in the industrial sector was Rs.250 billion, the state would have changed. For example, if the construction of a 1000-acre plot in Singur was made or a complete factory of Jindal's on 4000 acres of land,

But in reality, Tataa has returned. Jindal's factory also did not grow in that way. A small cement factory has just been built. The constituents say that the state government has said that investment has not been seen in reality. And if it was really that investment, then the state government could not have thought about selling 1250 megawatt of electricity. As a proof they are giving examples of other industrialized states of the country. Despite generating a lot of electricity, the industries are losing electricity due to industry. One of the examples of Uttar Pradesh.

Indrajith Roy, economist at Cardiff University, however, tried to look at the matter in another way. According to him, the state government may think of monetary profit by selling electricity and selling it. However, for the sale of electricity to another state, the central government needs a seal. That is, the matter is not only in the hands of the state, it is a center-state joint subject. But before selling, it is necessary to understand that the surplus power of West Bengal is temporal or long-term. If it is temporal then it would be wrong to have a big commitment with Bangladesh. And if it is long-term, then it is understandable that in the next few days there is no plan of big industry in West Bengal.It does not seem to be heard by state ministers. 1000 MW power is not the word of mouth. It is very important to understand that such a long period of power can really be given to West Bengal.

According to Dipankar Dasgupta, a prominent economist, "West Bengal is a debt-free state. There has been a huge amount of credit in the last few decades. If there is some money in the treasury by selling electricity, then there is nothing wrong with it. But the incident proves that in the near future there is no possibility of art in this state. The government has understood that. That is why efforts are being made to create alternate profits. If that is the case, why are the people of the state dreamed?

In the latest industry related Bengal Summit, the government has announced that the proposal for investment of Rs 1.9 lakh crore has been received in the state. If it really came, then it would not have been possible to imagine the sale of electricity. According to Dipankar Dasgupta, in the last phase of the last period some efforts were made to create art in the state. But if the present government tries to create an industrial-friendly image, it does not actually have its own reflection. Selling electricity is, therefore, an example of shame.

The state government is looking for close economists to look at half full glass. They say electricity production is an important industry. Once in West Bengal, there was a strong power shortage. It was possible to reduce the deficit gradually. West Bengal is now one of the states in the power generation industry. It is certainly an important step to sell electricity to neighboring countries. There was a debate, there is, there will be Now, if West Bengal finally gets the right to sell 1000 MW power to Bangladesh All are now dependent on the central government's policy.
