Power minister’s tweets against bureaucrat UPPCL chairman shifted after minister’s tweets

When his complaints against a senior IAS officer to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath did not work, UP’s Power Minister Shrikant Sharma took to twitter to show his annoyance against Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited Chairman Arvind Kumar, exposing the delay in implementation of the power projects.

The tactics worked and the said officer was transferred out of the power sector on Monday night. Agriculture Production Commissioner Alok Sinha has been given the additional charge of UPPCL.

This was probably the first time when a senior minister took to social media to express his annoyance against a bureaucrat working under him.
