    Mumbai, Nov 2 (PTI) Maharashtras energy ministerNitin Raut on Monday hinted at a major relief to electricityconsumers facing the issue of inflated power bills, saying aDiwali gift is in the offing.    He also asked Tata Power to increase its powergeneration capacity to avoid instances like the October 12electricity outage across the megapolis and added that twounits of the private sector power producer are shut atpresent.    Raut was speaking to reporters during a visit toTata Powers generation facility here following the outage.    It can be noted that a slew of users, includingcelebrities, had complained about high bills during thecoronavirus-induced lockdown.    Asked about the issue of inflated power bills, Rautsaid his department has sent proposals to the FinanceDepartment seven times.    Finally, it seems to have borne some success as'Matoshree' (private residence of Chief Minister UddhavThackeray) called him earlier in the day about it, he said.    The file was sent to the Finance Department on Sundaynight, he added, conceding that he does not know if DeputyChief Minister Ajit Pawar, who oversees the portfolio and iscurrently recuperating from COVID-19, has gone through it.    I think there should not be any doubt why thisshould not be a Diwali gift, he added.    Meanwhile, Raut asked Tata Power officials to uptheir generation capacity, reminding that it was the samecompany which had built the islanding system way back in 1981but the current output is below the required levels.    The financial capital needs to be made self-sufficient when it comes to power requirements so that allthe demand is met from within the city itself, he said.    Raut said there is a lack of communication betweenall stakeholders in the power sector, including powertransmission, generation and distribution companies, and askedeverybody to work in tandem.    He also offered a space for all private sectorproducers in the State Load Dispatch Centre (SLDC) in suburbanMumbai for easy coordination.    The minister is set to visit Adani ElectricityMumbais facilities on Tuesday as part of his efforts toassess the ground situation following the October 12 powerfiasco, an official statement said.
