CPN (Maoist Center) Member of Parliament Devendra Paudel has accused the government of ordering to cut the lines of those who do not pay the electricity tariff and not those who do.
Speaking at the meeting of the House of Representatives on Monday, he made such allegations. He said action was taken against Bimal Gurung, CEO of Dudhkoshi Hydropower Project, because of his criticism of the Energy Minister.
He said, "What is happening in the Ministry of Energy, Honorable Speaker, like the proverbial Jatra boat in a village where there is nothing?" Dudhkoshi Jalvidyut CEO Bimal Gurung has been prosecuted or what? The letter has been made public. For criticizing the minister . Will the Electricity Regulatory Commission cut the line of those who do not pay the tariff or will it cut the line of those who pay ? According to what I read in the newspaper, there is an instruction not to cut the line of those who do not pay the toll.'
He mentioned that there were rumors that Kulman Ghising would be removed and asked what mistake Kulman did by making Bright Nepal.
He said, 'Kulman Ghising has been heard saying that he will be removed in the evening, he will be removed in the evening, he will be removed tomorrow . What mistake did Kulman make by making bright Nepal? What mistake did Kulman make by bringing the loss-making authority to profit?'
He claimed that Kulman Ghising brought the loss-making electricity authority into profit.
