Congress (I): Mayawati is involved in Rs 3,000 crore power scam

Congress (I) has said that the Mayawati government in Uttar Pradesh is involved in Rs.3,000 crore power scam. Petition has been filed with Lokayukta to conduct a detailed inquiry into the deal. Congress (I) has said that “The state-owned Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited sacrificed lower rate of power from the NTPC and other agencies, and made an agreement with five private power companies to purchase 5,000 crore units of power from July 2011 to June 2012 at a much higher rate. Along with Congress (I) other opposition parties in the state are up in arms against corruption in the Mayawati government. Congress (I) estimates that there are numerous scams in the Mayawti government involving amount worth Rs 2.54 lakh crore and Rs 4 lakh crore scams of central government provided funds. However, the Mayawti’s government outwardly remains unfazed. She very well knows that this time her game is up and she is going to face humiliating defeat from the hands of resurgent Congress (I) in the coming state Assembly elections due early next year.
