Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has made a request to Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighting the State’s concerns over the proposed Draft Electricity Bill.
In a letter addressed to the Prime Minister late on Tuesday — which was also Telangana State Formation Day — the Chief Minister requested the Centre to withdraw the proposed amendments to the Electricity Act, as he felt that this was against the interest of State’s and the federal set-up.
The State Chief Minister, who has been expressing concern about the Bill, opined that the proposal of the Centre to bring in Amendments to the Electricity Act (Draft Electricity Bill Amendment Act 2020) would have an adverse impact on the management of the State electricity utilities.
