YSR Power mantra again!!!


Perhaps, Chief Minister Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy is of the view that power sector will once again come to his rescue in the next elections.

Just as free-power supply-to-farmers scheme did the trick for YSR in 2004 elections, he declared on Tuesday that if the Congress comes to power, there would be no power tariff hike for another five years. "My first signature on the file after coming to power in 2004 is free power to farmers. This time, it will be on the file announcing no tariff hike policy for any sector for the next five years," YSR said, while releasing the banners of no power tariff hike at the Collectors' Conference.


The Congress leaders are hopeful that this would create a huge impact on the electorate in favour of the ruling party. The party is all set to launch a massive campaign on this scheme in the coming few days.
