Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister AK Sharma.
Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister AK Sharma was visiting the districts to know the ground reality of the power system for the last several days. During this, he got a lot of flaws. After this, on Wednesday, he held a meeting up to UPPCL chairman and XEN of the entire state. After listening to the entire ten -minute electric chief UPPCL chairman and some officials, when the minister spoke, the whole department was shaken. The minister said that the ground reality is completely different. He fiercely reprimanded the officials. He even told the officials that you people are sitting blind, deaf, kana. Let us know what the Energy Minister said.
Energy Minister AK Sharma said, you guys stop your nonsense. I am not sitting to listen to your nonsense. The ground reality below is completely different. If you face the public then you will know. I have returned to many districts and returned tomorrow. You are sitting blind, deaf, sitting. You do not know what is passing on the public and what people are thinking about the department.
Electricity department is not a baniya shop
AK Sharma said, you are worse than the police. The false report that comes from below, you guys tell above. The electricity department is not a baniya shop to work to recover the money for the empty bill. This is a public service. We have to behave according to that. Rebuting on cutting the entire feeder or village line, he said that what is the fault of those consumers who are paying bills on time. What is justice not to change or upgrade their burnt transformers.
Looks like we have taken betel nut to discredit
The minister’s anger did not stop here. He said, it seems that the electricity department has taken the betel nut to discredit us. In the era of computer, a bill of 72 crore rupees of a common man comes and then you guys take money to fix it. Vigilance raids are being conducted in the wrong place. Where there is a lot of theft, they do not go. Money is being recovered in the name of FIR.
Who gave you rights to arbitrary
He said that all these things should be written today. I am tired by speaking oral. After listening to us in the meeting, you operate from elsewhere and do it upside down. Now all this will not work. I am accountable to the public. I answer in the assembly. Who gave you the right to make you arbitrary. The entire state is suffering the brunt of the wrong and untimely decisions of your people. Despite my repeated saying, you guys are not being alert. Such as the subject of evacuation of contract workers, the topic of phone picking up and the subject of electrical accidents.
