Vadodara: Gujarat on Friday blamed the Centre for power shortage in several states by not taking a decision on allowing the power-starved states to purchase electricity from Gujarat, which has surplus capacity.
State Energy Minister Saurabh Patel said this while speaking at a conference hosted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) here.

He said that Gujarat government had not demanded any special package from the Centre as the state strictly follows provisions of the Fiscal Responsibility Act.
