Terming Uttar Pradesh's power utility UPPCL's decision to allow coal export to two private firms as "wrong", Power Engineers Associations have sought immediate intervention by Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav.
Raising questions on coal export and procuring it from the open market, Chairman of All India Power Engineers Federation Shailendra Dubey and General Secretary of Uttar Pradesh Power Corp Ltd (UPPCL) Engineers Association D C Dixit said that it would hike power rates by 50 to 60 paise per unit, which would be ultimately be realised from the consumers.
The organisations have demanded the CM to intervene immediately.
