Speaker, the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana, the scheme launched by the Central Government to provide uninterrupted power supply to the rural areas, the scheme will enable the Government to initiate much awaited reforms in the rural areas. Focusing on rural households, agriculture under the leadership of our hon. Chief Minister, Shri Chandrababu Naidu, the State of Andhra Pradesh has been fully electrified under the scheme like the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana. … (Interruptions) 1101 hours (At this stage, Shrmati Renuka Butta and some other hon. Members came and stood near the Table.) SHRI KONAKALLA NARAYANA RAO (MACCHILIPATNAM): In the coastal areas there is a lot of aqua-culture… (Interruptions) activity being practiced by these people. … (Interruptions) HON. SPEAKER: Everyday this is not fair. You please go back to your seats. SHRI KONAKALLA NARAYANA RAO (MACCHILIPATNAM): There is a need for uninterrupted high quality power supply to these areas. However, this is not the case. People are still using diesel engines in aqua-culture which, in turn, increases the investment costs. If the Government can provide power to these aqua-culture practitioners, then 11 it can help improve their incomes and bring them out of poverty. Is there any proposal under the scheme to provide electricity at subsidized rates to poor households practicing aqua-culture residing in the coastal areas of Andhra Pradesh including my Parliamentary constituency Macchilipatnam? SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL: Madam Speaker, the electricity tariff is determined by the State Regulatory Commission. The State DISCOM has to file a petition and the Regulatory Commission determines the tariff. Any concession required to be given for aqua-culture can only be decided between the DISCOM and the Regulatory Commission. However, our approach has been to make sure that there is adequate availability of power. I am happy to inform the House, through you, the State of Andhra Pradesh has power surplus today and every household in Andhra Pradesh gets full power all the time. The villages in Andhra Pradesh are completely electrified. At the same time industries get electricity all the time; farmers get adequate electricity. In that sense, the State of Andhra Pradesh has been a performing State as far as these schemes are concerned. HON. SPEAKER: Shri Konakalla Narayana Rao, do you have a second Supplementary? SHRI KONAKALLA NARAYANA RAO (MACCHILIPATNAM): Madam, no. HON. SPEAKER: Smt. P.K.Sreemathi Teacher --- Absent.
