India cannot become a developed country without a sustainable and viable power sector giving uninterrupted supply to people, Union minister RK Singh said on Friday.
He was speaking at a function to inaugurate a two-day conference of power and renewable energy ministers of states and UTs in the Tent City in Kevadiya in Gujarat's Narmada district, a PIB release said.
The Union Minister of State for Power, New and Renewable Energy said, "A sustainable and viable power sector is a prerequisite for India to become a developed nation. India cannot become a developed country without a sustainable and viable power sector which supplies 24/7 power for all."
