Leader of the Opposition VD Satheesan on Saturday said the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) would order an inquiry into the “corruption” behind the decision to cancel the long-term supply contracts of the 465 MW Design, Build, Finance, Own and Operate (DBFOO) if it comes to power.
It was the decision to cancel these contracts that led to unscheduled load shedding and power cuts across the state this summer, Mr. Satheesan said. Such restrictions, imposed amid the scorching summer heat and at night, should be lifted immediately, he said.
