Naidu urges Chief Secretary to save industries, farmers in A.P. from power crisis

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president  N. Chandrababu Naidu urged Chief Secretary Sameer Sharma to initiate immediate measures to rescue industry, agriculture and service sectors by ensuring quality and uninterrupted power supply.

In an open letter to the Chief Secretary on Sunday, Mr. Naidu stressed the need for addressing the problems pertaining to power cuts to protect the people’s livelihood.

“It is the duty of government to give a first priority to the power sector because of its key role in industrial development and the State’s economy. But in the past three years, the power sector has been crushed due to the thoughtless policies and lack of planning by the State government,” said Mr. Naidu.
