‘Political conspiracy behind tariff hike’- S K Yesodharan

S K Yesodharan
"The KSERC had not denied the charges leveled against it by electricity finance expert D. Shina"

S.K. Yeshodharan, former general secretary of the KSEB Engineers Association, has said that the Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission (KSERC) is solely responsible for the unbearable power tariff hike slapped on the people of the State.
In a statement here on Tuesday, he said the present KSERC which was constituted by the previous Left Democratic Front government was generally perceived to remain above politics. But the power tariff hike belied those expectations “since there appears to be a political conspiracy behind the hike.”
The KSERC performance had created problems for the electricity sector of the State which could not be easily solved. The KSERC had not denied the charges levelledagainst it by electricity finance expert D. Shina in the wake of the tariff hike, Mr. Yeshodharan said.
