Chairman and Managing Director of TS-Genco and TS-Transco D. Prabhakar Rao on Monday alleged that some IAS officers in the State administration have been creating hurdles in the functioning of power utilities by not releasing funds for daily purchase of energy from the exchange to meet demand, despite instructions from the Chief Minister.
Speaking at the inauguration of the new office building of Telangana Vidyuth Accounts Officers Association here, he said the power utilities had been working hard to ensure uninterrupted supply to all sections of consumers with the support of the Chief Minister. It was the Chief Minister’s idea, at the time of State formation, that the power utilities should be headed by engineers and professionals.
