BJP national executive member and TS election management committee chairman Eatala Rajendra, on Thursday, charged that Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao stands exposed on his false claims of TS being the top State in the country regarding per capita consumption of electricity with the publication of the 2023 annual report by Central Electricity Authority (CEA).
Stating that KCR has been boasting about Telangana topping the country in terms of per capita power consumption, he said that the recently-published annual report of CEA showed that TS ranked 10th in the per capita consumption of electricity.
“So, for all these years, KCR has been making false claims that Telangana ranks first in the country in terms of per capita consumption of electricity. The CEA report showed that six states and three union territories are ahead in per capita consumption of electricity. Goa ranks first followed by Punjab and Orissa in per capita electricity consumption. Even the union territories of Dadra Nagar Haveli, Daman Diu and Puducherry are ahead of Telangana,” he explained.
