Hyderabad, Aug.23 (Hydnow): Speaking to media persons after meeting the family, Revanth Reddy reiterated the demand for CBI enquiry into the incident which claimed nine lives. He alleged that the incident occurred due to utter negligence of the State Government. He said technicians had already warned the government about some glitches at the unit and also feared that they could lead to an accident at the power unit.
However, he said that the authorities simply ignored those issues by not conducting any review. He blamed Power Minister Jagadish Reddy and TS GENCO Chairman and Managing Director D. Prabhakar Rao for the incident. He announced that he would raise the issue in Parliament seeking a CBI enquiry. He said criminal cases should be booked against all those responsible for the incident.
Revanth Reddy also condemned Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao for not visiting the site of the incident or hospital to meet the injured employees. He said that neither the Chief Minister, nor the Power Minister or TSGENCO CMD met any of the families of victims. He said this kind of behaviour would demoralise all the employees in the State. He said that the CID enquiry ordered by the State Government was just an eyewash and it would not produce any results. (Hydnow)
