Centre asks Haryana to fast-track listing of 4 power firms

The Union Power Ministry wrote to Haryana's chief secretary, urging expedited stock-market listing of DHBVNL, UHBVNL, HPGCL, and HVPNL to attract investment, raise capital, and reduce budget dependence. State officials view the move cautiously amid privatisation concerns following last week's power employees' strike over a private distribution licence in Gurugram.
