Why it matters
Energy stability is a critical factor for industrial growth and public welfare, making it a significant point of political contention.

Referring to a newspaper report, Mr. Nagenthran said due to the low voltage, appliances in households in various parts of the State were affected and further criticised the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) -led government’s alleged inability to address the issue even after the end of the higher seasonal demand during summer.
