CM Kejriwal Orders Power Subsidy Audit As Atishi Alleges ‘Nexus’ Between Power Companies, LG

Addressing a press conference Atishi said agencies empanelled with the CAG will conduct the audit and directions in this regard will be issued in two to three days.

New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has ordered an audit of the power subsidy being given to discoms to ascertain if there is any discrepancy, said Delhi power minister Atishi on Monday. Addressing a press conference the AAP minister said agencies empanelled with the Comptroller and Auditor General of India will conduct the audit and directions in this regard will be issued in two to three days.

"A conspiracy is being hatched at a high level to stop free electricity being provided by the Kejriwal government. Files are not being shown to the chief minister and the power minister... It shows that something is amiss," Atishi claimed.

"Government-appointed experts in discom boards were removed earlier and now questions are being raised if the LG is colluding with the discoms," she alleged.
