Of power cut and ‘shock’
During the recent inauguration of a lift irrigation project at Periyapatna by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, a technical malfunction had the authorities fuming and squirming. For, the mechanism to pump water to 150 lakes as envisaged under the project failed to switch on at the key moment of inauguration, much to the chagrin of the Chief Minister.
But what was equally shocking was the absence of Managing Director of Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation C.N. Sridhar at the venue.
