Government allows industry to choose power discom in UP

<p>The state government offered yet another sop to industries by giving them the option to take power from the power distribution company of their choice. The power will be wheeled to the industrial units under the &#39;open access system&#39; for which the state government will set up a help desk at the UP state load dispatch centre (UPSLDC). The permission to take power from a source other than the existing distribution company will be granted by the Uttar Pradesh power transmission corporation limited and the respective discoms. It could prove to be a boon to the industries in UP which has a power crunch.</p>
