Ghaziabad residents write to MP for power solution

Reeling under a power crisis that keeps getting worse with the summer, the RWA Federation of Ghaziabad on Friday wrote to newly elected MP V K Singh and BJP chief Rajnath Singh, urging them to take up the matter with the state government.

Sahibabad area of Ghaziabad has recorded four long outages this month, the worst being 12 hours. While the power corporation attributed the power failures to overloading on the decades-old transmission and distribution infrastructure of the city, residents blame the Akhilesh Yadav-led SP government for not paying attention towards developing the electricity infrastructure of Ghaziabad.
