India's Gas-Based Power Capacity Shrinks Ahead of Summer Demand

India is seeing a drop in how much electricity it can make from gas, even though the government wants to use more.

In the last few months, the amount of gas-powered electricity dropped by about a fifth.

The government is trying to make sure there's enough power, especially because people will need a lot during the hot summer.

They are using a special law to get more power from gas plants.

India's need for electricity is going up because of growth and heatwaves, with a record peak last year.
