Power cuts: BJP MLA reprimands officials, seeks permanent fix

LUCKNOW With the state capital facing one of its worst electricity crises in recent years in wake of prolonged and unannounced power cuts during intense summer heat, BJP MLA Dr Neeraj Bora raised the issue with energy minister AK Sharma, UP Power Corporation chairman Ashish Goyal and MVVNL managing director Riya Kejriwal.

The MLA’s intervention has become significant because it contradicts repeated government claims of stable electricity supply in urban areas.
