The failure of monsoon highlights the power distribution issues affecting Maharashtra. The electricity prices in Maharashtra should be probably prices based on availability and distance from the source. This means that Pune and Mumbai would have to pay much higher prices compared to Vidharbha. The high price would also act as a natural push towards conserving electricity.
And if something similar is already being done, the prices have to go up even more. High enough so that nobody forgets to switch the light off in Mumbai or Pune at the cost of a more rolling blackouts in the rest of the state.
