Power problem is merely symptomatic of a larger issue. India has fairly good governance at Central and State level, the problem is at the third tier - local governance i.e. - municipalities, or panchayats, or city councils. It is this third tier fails to deliver primary civic amenities like power, water supply, sanitation, schooling, health services, local road etc.. The transformation of this third class third tier of governance to top class perhaps needs enabling of land markets. The appreciation of land by providing better services may lead to more and more land acquisition for expansion of domain of these amenities and such expansion would finance 'amenitisation'. Alas, our laws totally prohibit such expansion and constricts growth.
