flag India’s central government halted natural gas to Karnataka’s main power plant on March 12, 2026, due to a national shortage tied to the West Asia conflict, prioritizing other sectors.

flag Natural gas supply to Karnataka’s sole gas-based power plant in Yelahanka has been halted as of March 12, 2026, due to a central government directive prioritizing domestic, transport, and industrial gas use amid a national shortage linked to the West Asia conflict. flag The move, based on a new supply regulation order, limits power generation to the lowest priority, with GAIL cutting off the 370 MW plant’s gas. flag Karnataka, meeting daily electricity demand of about 355 million units through diverse sources, may face minor disruptions if further cuts occur. flag While piped natural gas for homes and businesses remains stable, industrial and commercial users are capped at 80% of past usage, with additional supply priced higher to promote efficiency.
