Our government has tabled a white paper on Telangana State power sector in the Assembly soon after taking over the reins of the State, he said, adding that the BRS MLA and former minister for Energy G. Jagadish Reddy sought judicial probe on power purchase agreements entered by the previous BRS government during a debate on the white paper.
Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy immediately announced a judicial inquiry to go into the alleged irregularities in power sector as repeatedly sought by Mr. Reddy to maintain transparency.
In an oblique reference to BRS president and former chief minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s letter addressed to the Commission, he said: “If someone refuses to appear before the judicial inquiry when summoned that tantamounts to lack of faith in a panel instituted as per law.”
