Will drag Chandrababu Naidu to SC on power issue, warns KCR

KCR has urged PM Modi to intervene to sort out power distribution issue

Hyderabad: The TRS government will be filing a Special Leave Petition in the Supreme Court early next week against the alleged injustice being meted out to the state by the neighbouring Andhra Pradesh Government which it says, has been violating the power sharing formulae envisaged in the AP Reorganisation Act and has been denying its legitimate share from Lower Sileru, Vizag Hinduja and Krishnapatnam power plants.

Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao said that his AP counterpart N. Chandrababu Naidu was bent upon seeing that the standing crops in Telangana should suffer for want of sufficient power and he was solely responsible for the present power situation in Telangana.

Addressing a news conference after a two-and-a-half hour Cabinet meeting at Secretariat on Friday night, Mr Rao urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to immediately intervene and set things right and see that the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act was implemented in its true letter and spirit.

He said there was no question of stopping power generation from Srisailam till the power demand for agriculture was met fully.
