Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president YS Sharmila protested against the ruling NDA government in the State for allegedly hiking power tariffs under the guise of adjustment charges.
The APCC president held a lantern rally from the party office in Vijayawada to Indira Gandhi circle and questioned if people had to live in darkness due to the inflated charges.
“The NDA accused YSRCP government of burdening people with Rs 35,000 crore but they are also following the same model by imposing a burden Rs 17,000 crore,” Sharmila said in a release.
