HYDERABAD: The All India Power Engineers Federation (AIPEF) on Wednesday asked the Central Government to refer the Electricity (Amendment) Bill 2020 to the Standing Committee for Energy, ahead of the proposed meeting through video conference by Union Power Minister with all the Chief Ministers on the Bill.
The Federation said it would give all the stakeholders an adequate opportunity to appear before the Committee and make their written and verbal submissions. The Federation also wanted that the Union Government defer the Bill, as it would not be possible to convene the Parliament session during Covid crisis. Federation chairman Shailendra Dubey also sent the copies of the letter to all the Chief Ministers.
