Delhi deputy CM Manish Sisodia blames Centre for Delhi’s coal crisis

Blaming the Centre over the ongoing coal crisis row, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Sunday said the Centre is running away from the issue of shortage of power production.

Referring to the oxygen crisis during the peak of second wave of Covid-19, the Deputy Chief Minister alleged that the Central government always neglects real issues.

“The coal situation is similar to the Oxygen crisis. However, the Centre won’t accept it,” he said.

Criticising Union Power Minister R.K. Singh, Sisodia said he is sad on the ‘irresponsible approach’ of the Minister.

Several states, including Rajasthan, Delhi and Andhra Pradesh, have been raising concerns over the power shortage, Sisodia said.
