Srinagar, Jan 06 (KNS): Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari Saturday expressed serious concern over leasing out of electricity from Rattle Power Project in Kishtwar to Rajasthan.
Bukhari said at a time when the entire Jammu and Kashmir is facing an acute electricity crisis, especially in its rural areas, the reported leasing out of electricity from Rattle Power Project Kishtwar to Rajasthan is quite puzzling.
He said the J&K administration has off and on came on record claiming that it has been buying the power supply from other states to meet the demands in the Union Territory, while at the same time leasing out its own supply to another state is beyond comprehension.
He urged the J&K administration to come clear on the fact.(KNS)
