Power cut during energy minister’s event: HC asks electricity dept to reconsider JE’s suspension
: The Allahabad high court has directed the Uttar Pradesh electricity department to reconsider the suspension of a junior engineer, against whom action was taken after a 10-minute power cut during a programme attended by the state’s energy minister in Moradabad district.
Disposing of the writ petition filed by junior engineer Lalit Kumar, Justice Saurabh Shyam Shamshery relied upon the statement of the electricity department’s counsel that the managing director of Pashchimanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam would reconsider the matter.
