The All India Power Engineers Federation has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to put on hold the controversial draft Electricity (Amendment) Bill 2020 as a large number of states have raised serious objections regarding the amendments.
In a letter sent to the Prime Minister, Shailendra Dubey, chairman AIPEF said the controversial Bill must be withdrawn, particularly as a number of states such as Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Kerala, Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand and Puducherry have expressed strong objections regarding it.
