The government has handled highest ever intra-day peak load of power on the transmission and highest every daily energy consumption on Friday, March 8, with the two clocking at 15,623 megawatt and 305.19 million units, respectively, Deputy Chief Minister M. Bhatti Vikramarka, who holds the portfolios of Finance and Energy, has said.
“The fact that the government is meeting higher demand of energy without any problems itself indicates that it is handling the people’s needs better than the previous Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) government,” Mr. Vikramarka said addressing a press conference here on Saturday.
Stating that the demand of energy was expected to go up to a maximum of 16,500 MW the Deputy CM said the government had made all arrangements to supply required energy. He asked the people to rest assured about getting uninterrupted and quality power supply and there was no truth, whatsoever, in the misinformation being spread by BRS.
