Hi I am starting to write my first article

Electricity Supply Companies in Karnataka, India
In the year 1999, Karnataka embarked on a major reform of the power sector. As a first step, Karnataka Electricity Board (KEB) was dissolved and in its place, the Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL) was incorporated.

This was followed by the constitution of Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) in November 1999.

In the next phase of the reform process, the transmission and distribution business managed by KPTCL were unbundled in June 2002. The distribution companies were formed to distribute power in Karnataka.

Five distribution companies formed in Karnataka
BESCOM Bangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited :

MESCOM Mangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited.

HESCOM Hubli Electricity Supply Company Limited.

GESCOM Gulbarga Electricity Supply Company Limited.

CESC Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation.
