Around 15 years ago, when Reliance Industries (RIL) struck natural gas in the Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin off the east coast, the government made plans to supply that fuel cheaply to scores of generators that sprang up in India triggered by the discovery.

Affordable domestic gas was why those thermal plants came up and the rate of the fuel today is why those generators hardly operate.
