Leasing out of electricity to Rajasthan | Come clear on facts: Altaf Bukhari to administration

Srinagar, Jan 6: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari today urged the Jammu and Kashmir administration to come clear on facts regarding leasing out of electricity from Ratle Power Project Kishtwar to Rajasthan.

He posted on X, “At a time when the entire Jammu and Kashmir is facing an acute electricity crisis, especially in its rural areas, the reported leasing out of electricity from Ratle Power Project Kishtwar to Rajasthan is quite puzzling.”

He added that the J&K administration has off and on came on record claiming that it has been buying the power supply from other states to meet the demands in the Union Territory, while at the same time leasing out its own supply to another state is beyond comprehension. “Urge the J&K administration to come clear on the fact,” Bukhari posted.
