GUWAHATI
A national organisation of power engineers and employees has opposed the Electricity (Amendment) Bill, 2022 and said tabling it in Parliament will be an “open violation” of the Centre’s written assurance to farmers across the country.
The Bill pursued by the Ministry of Power was framed without taking the 27 lakh electricity engineers and employees in India into confidence, the Assam and Meghalaya branches of the National Coordination Committee of Electricity Employees and Engineers (NCCOEEE) said on Tuesday.
