AIMIM is welcoming the resolution passed in the Legislative Assembly against the Electricity (Amendment) Bill. AIMIM chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi wanted to know why the Centre was against the poor and the farming community. He hailed the resolution to name the new Parliament after B R Ambedkar and hoped that even the new Secretariat building in the State be named after the architect of the constitution.
Speaking to the media, Owaisi wondered why the Centre was challenging the state government's authority over matters of
power enshrined by the 2003 Electricity Act. This will escalate prices and add to the cost of living. Why is Prime Minister Narendra Modi against the poor and trying to benefit the big companies, he asked.
Regarding his visit to Rajasthan on Wednesday and Thursday, he said that it was aimed at strengthening the party base. After holding meetings with core group members in Jalupura, he will address at Sikar. Another public meeting is scheduled for Thursday in Ladnun.
