GANGTOK, 04 July: The Affected Citizens of Teesta [ACT], in a letter to the Secretary, Energy and Power Department, has sought clarification regarding the agreement signed between Amalgamated Transpower India Ltd. [ATPIL] and the Sikkim Power Development Corporation [SPDC] for the Rolep I and II, Ralong and Cholung Chu Hydel projects; an agreement which was later scrapped.
The project has been reportedly handed over to Athena Power Project Ltd now, who, the ACT letter claims, paid Rs 42.25 Cr for the project. The letter requests the department to make the agreement ‘public and transparent’ by publishing the details in local newspapers.
The letter also seeks clarification on the Rs 50 Cr loan given to ATPIL by SPDC and the Power Deptt.
Reasons behind the scrapping of the earlier agreement between ATPIL and SPDC have also not been made clear, the letter contends, and requests the Secretary to make the Cabinet memo scrapping the said agreement public as well.
