Electricity Shortage in India: India has suffered frequent power outages in recent days.

The energy-hungry nation has seen strong power demand in recent days, forcing India to cut coal supplies to the non-power sector and suspend plans for a number of utility fuel auctions without supply deals due to a stock slump.
A crippling coal shortage in October caused the worst electricity shortage in nearly five years, resulting in hours-long power outages in many northern Indian states.
