GANGTOK, 07 May: Sikkim RTI Forum has alleged that Lanco Energy Pvt. Ltd., a power project developer, is not adhering to the agreement signed with the State Government. A press release issued by the Forum states that, as per clause 4.30 of the agreement the power developers were supposed to adopt one village in the vicinity of the project site and provide facilities for the benefit of the villagers.
However, the release points out that according to the information obtained through RTI from the Energy & Power Department, Lanco Energy is yet to adopt a village which the release adds “clearly indicates that Lanco is not respecting the terms and conditions of the agreement”.
The Forum has requested the Chief Minister to look into the matter at the earliest and ensure that project developers work in accordance with the agreement.
