Since 1978, the Maharashtra Government has shown scant regards towards vital issue of power generation and its distribution, because of following reasons: 1.The incompetent ministrial interference in working of MSEB and increased corruption. 2.The recruitment in MSEB through ministrial recommendation. 3.Insufficient demand made by MSEB to State Govt. These are the main reasons, it was the duty of state govt. to consider the proposal of power generation and works out the anticipated demand. But the state govt. failed in working of MSEB and all the time busy with election and their party position. Moreover the concentration of decision making power in the hand of energy minister, not in case of power but all most all department. Which started corruption by political people. MSEB was not allowing any cogeneration by industry, stating the reasons of their infrastructure investment. Today also the MSEB is not giving permission to cogen. project. If every village of state gets permission of 1 mw, cost 2.5 Crs, by village waste fire thermal power, the state will have surplus power within year.
