Burning streetlights during the day raise YSR's hackles

Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD: Noticing that streetlights in Banjara Hills were switched on even during daytime on Tuesday, Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy called the Central Power Distribution Company Limited (CPDCL) chairman Saiprasad over phone and enquired if the timers fixed to regulate the functioning of the lights were not functioning.

Dr. Reddy asked Mr. Saiprasad to take up an inquiry and let him know the finding.

The Chief Minister was proceeding to the inaugural function of a children's hospital at around 9.30 am when he noticed the streetlights glowing.

He slowed down his vehicle and asked his personal secretary to call Mr. Saiprasad.

Questioning the official whether CPDCL did not coordinate with the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad in the matter of streetlights, he asked why there should be so much of wastage of power.

Dr. Reddy reminded Mr. Saiprasad that the CPDCL had already distributed 1,980 million units more than last year.
