Round-the-clock (24-hour) electricity supply
“24-hour electricity (Kejriwal said this would take 3-4 years)”
The verdict
The government reported meeting a record 16,192 MW peak demand in June 2025 without power cuts. No independent outage or supply-hours data was found, so this is a provisional rating based on the government's claim.
Rule applied: In progress: deadline not reached; rating is provisional and not counted in the final score
