A post circulating on social media platforms claims that India is facing a severe power crisis and grid failures due to coal shortages. ⚠️ These claims are #Misleading & aim to create unnecessary panic. ✅The maximum peak demand on 02 May 2026 was 229 GW and was met completely, and there was no shortage. ✅The total coal stock with Thermal Power Plants currently stands at 53.702 million tonnes, which is sufficient to meet requirements. ✅The power availability in the country is sufficient, and the grid operations and distribution are being managed as per well-laid-out plans. ✅The existing frequency control defence mechanisms provide sufficient operational margin to enable secure grid operations. ➡️If you come across any such misleading content related to the Government of India, report it immediately: 📲 WhatsApp: +91 8799711259 📩 Email: factcheck@pib.gov.in
