That's just not it. The release further said that the REC agreed to a government proposal to reduce the interest rate on its loan by 0.5 percent which will reduce the interest burden by about Rs 600 crore.

Regarding the MoUs, it was signed by the chairman of T Genco and the managing director D Prabhakar Rao and REC chairman and managing director Rajeev Sharma. This looks like a great prospect. Hope this actually goes through.

These projects if completed will totally change the power scenario in the state, you know. That would totally be great. Like if these are all done a total of 10,280 MW of power will be generated in the next 3 or 4 years.

Yes. There is a pretty big thing coming up in the city. The Telangana government has reached a memorandum of Understanding or MOU with the Rural Electric Corporation Limited that could grant the state with a 24 thousand crore rupees project.
