HYDERABAD: TS Genco and Transco CMD D Prabhakar Rao wrote a letter to State Energy Secretary with a request to ensure that power was generated without interruptions at hydel stations, including Srisailam. He wrote the letter in the wake of river management boards taking control of the irrigation projects.
“All hydel power stations in the State are owned by Genco, which is managing and looking after the hydel projects. TS Genco is following the instructions of the State government in generating hydro electric power and special police are deployed for the security of the hydel projects. Presently, there are copious inflows into the TS Genco hydel power stations and the power is being generated to the maximum capacity. However, the Jal Shakti gazette notification stated that TS Genco hydel power projects will fall under the jurisdiction of KRMB and GRMB, including operational control,” Prabhakar Rao said in his letter.
