Congress means electricity, says Telangana Deputy CM Bhatti Vikramarka

Khammam (Telangana), June 18 (UNI) “Electricity means Congress… Congress means electricity,” declared Telangana Deputy Chief Minister and Finance Minister Bhatti Vikramarka Mallu while inaugurating 1912 electric ambulance services and a medical camp for electricity department employees at Khammam district headquarters on Wednesday.
Highlighting the Congress government's historical contributions to power infrastructure, the Deputy CM said that all phases (I–VII) of the Kothagudem Thermal Power Station were initiated and completed during Congress regimes.
In contrast, he alleged that during the decade-long rule of the BRS, not a single additional unit of power was generated, and incomplete energy projects were left abandoned, creating policy confusion in the sector.
