Haryana power staff strike over private discom licence; state to contest HERC order

Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission granted Eleven Power a 25-year distribution licence for Gurugram and Nuh, prompting a 3-day staff strike and state government opposition. The move challenges the state-owned discom's monopoly, with the power minister vowing to contest the decision before the tribunal. This marks a significant shift in India's power distribution landscape, with implications for privatization and labor relations.
