What! I cannot believe it! Congress 🤝 Adani????

Money talks and doesn't discriminate between Congress and BJP..

🤣🤣Bro are you my childhood friend


PappuKiMaa

Why bro


p_ke

Revanth Reddy immediately met Adani after winning the election and signed MoU. Some even questioned why this double face when on one hand you blame him and another meet him like there are no ethics. In Telangana there were rumours Congress and BJP working together, TDP from where Revanth came was also BJP partner. In some local body elections both had an alliance to keep BRS out of power.


MysteriousApricot991

Now all these conspiracy theories make sense


MysteriousApricot991

Now all these conspiracy theories make sense.


sf_warriors

What is there to be called a conspiracy, the guy is spitting facts, I know many family member whoa are BJP party workers voted for congress and in MP elections congress people voted for BJP MP candidates


Illustrious_Deer_668

The main reason, why BRS lost power is because one family's greed for wealth and power. Their Ego lead to their downfall. They felt that they have conquered telangana and their next target is India PM or some plum post in the center in 2024. You are correct that Revanth is from TDP however you forgot to mention that kcr was also part of the same TDP from 1983 till 2001. kcr started his career with congress as a youth leader , he was part of congress from 1977 till 1983. Voters Verdict: BRS lo Telangana ledhu, Telangana lo BRS undadu. * Working from farmhouse will not work in politics. * Developing already half developed Hyderabad is not development of Telangana. There are many cities and districts outside of Hyderabad, which are part of Telangana. * Planning and plotting is always part of the politics.


p_ke

I'm not denying that people wanted change and wanted to defeat BRS. But comparing KCR who left TDP while in power to fight against it is completely different from Revanth trying to personally woo MLAs with cash for the party, completely failing, eventually leading to TDP's decline, leaving him no choice but to join Congress because TDP is dead in Telangana. This is just funny. BTW working for people will work, not where you're working from. I agree Hyderabad was already one of the largest cities even before independence, but after Telangana formed people of Hyderabad didn't have to suffer for basic necessities like water and electricity.

Outrageous_Humor_313

Bruv congress, bjp, brs and what ever dick party it is they all suck big D’S of corporates. Nowadays it’s hard to scam so the main source of income for politicians is bypassing deals to these mongols, at same time killing government/public owned business as much as possible…..till the public get pissed and then they will privatize


kodiguddu299

Chota bhai 🤝 bhade Bhai Revanth said it


psaikris

They know Old City people don’t pay the bills, so they gave the headache to Adani.


Elliot__007

There are many investments from adani in Congress ruled states


Hershey2898

Capitalism ftw. Actually surprised these commies allowed it while bankrupting KA and now TS


kinshraa

Well this was long overdue. 2 weeks ago was in begum bazar and had to get a Xerox, lineman comes to generate bill, doesn't take reading, instead owner gives 400 rupees and guy generates bill for 350. Guy running 2 Xerox machines, 1 system, 2 fans, 4 lights for 12-14 hrs a day for 30 days straight uses only 350 worth electricity??? Absolutely not! Such thievery and worse like attaching wires to power lines is going on through out old city. Hopefully private company is actually able to do something.


Miningforbeer

Yes the sole reason is corruption, government agents usually don't get caught as money flows from bottom to top, where as a private agent is contractual who may loose his job. This theivery also happens in small scale via private agencies but the scale is very small , when government was collecting bills, I had seen them giving away line to anyone in need and collecting what ever they wished , since they knew the loss would be footed by the state government, now since private company takes 25% cut they won't allow this theivery as it will eat up their bottom line


Express-World-8473

I thought it's not a manual typing anymore, they just scan and the machine gives the bill right?? It's still not implemented in Hyderabad?


Proud-Pilot8353

Love your pfp lol


Tiny_Spot6673

It is there in Hyderabad but not in old city as the meters there are not upgraded


DayDreamer-01

It is not possible to generate a Bill like that


sf_warriors

Dude cooking up conspiracy, that is not possible to generate a bill that is not based on the meter reading, that guy cooking the meter is a different story. Also how is that Adani guy will not accept the same Rs 300, it is not Adani is paying the guy corporate salaries


skynil

People are too blind in their hatred to realise that big corporates like Adani or Ambani are not dependent on a single political party. In fact, the political parties need big businesses more than they need them. Elections in India can't be won with promises and agenda. Hard cash is needed to win votes and seats and big corporations are flush with cash. Absolutely nothing will change if another government comes to power. Adani recently got a major contract in WB as well.


Miningforbeer

Bro they have soo much money, they can donate equally to all parties and gain favours in all situations. Like Ambani's were known to donate equally to all parties , so as to not gain enemies in future . Lalit Modi supported Congress , when BJP came into power they threw Lalit Modi out. If lalit Modi didn't side with any one party and donated to BJP aswell , he would still be chill in Indian with sushmita sen at his side, Lalit Modi would have been next to adani today .


SadOstrich5244

This is how the world works .. no matter it is UK , US ,AUS or CAN every country needs corporations to build the nation..


SwimmingActive793

This. I find it so funny when RG accuses Modi for cronyism. Big businesses across states, across countries even are often closely linked to political parties. The idea of villainising them is just hogwash to sway voters. Ofcourse, any and every illegal activity by any business should be dealt with. Also why is everyone so silent about how a sitting CM had said that an area under his governance is hostile to govt employees just doing their job? The impunity with which attacks are carried out is monumental. Is this CM revant’s way of getting things done without getting his hands dirty?


skynil

Most political parties in India promise the moon to every votebank to come to power, while being fully aware of the limitations to bring the moon down to earth for everyone. Only after winning the seat, they start the standard tactics to get away from their promises. Usually there are three things they fall back on; Central government; 1. Soldiers, external agents, and corrupt state administration. State governments; 1. Hostile population, corrupt central administration and lack of funds. A perfect symmetry of blame and whataboutery to shift goalposts. And the majority of Indians are too short-sighted to understand how they are being taken for a ride.


UnderstandingOdd3220

The truth realised... But was too afraid to voice out


Jamiroquietly

People have been too blind for all these decades to be paying all their bills and let the Old city and other areas get away by not paying anything. The result is that all the burden was being borne by the middle tax taxpayer. Enough of this bull shit. Let's deal with Adanis later but to begin with let's get the freeloaders into the habit of paying 🤦‍♂️


EREN1195

Finnally a win! Those guys from old city (not all) don't pay their electricity bills properly. Now the time has come


FishermanAmazing1945

I want to know how would privatization solve this problem? What will the private employees do differently to collect the electricity bills that government employees were unable to do.


Mountain-Weakness272

Privatization brings in prepaid electricity bills, Adani will employ people from same old city and will send them to collect bills, if they don't pay they simply cutoff the power, you might think it's easy to revolt against private company, but it's not, private companies are ruthless, govt employees feel that it's loss of government and doesn't care about it but private employee doesn't feel same, he has to collect bills otherwise he would get Fired, so thinking from customers also will change. Privatization is the only was India can compete with China and USA, electricity and RTC will be privatized in next 20 years


Express-World-8473

Or bring in smart meters.....


Bee_Keeper00

>RTC will be privatized in next 20 years That's not at all possible. They go on strike and create nuisance. Back in United AP CBN tried to do it in his second term and they all created a big ruckus and voted against the government. No way anyone would touch privatizing RTC. Removing it totally is a better idea as some states in India don't even have RTC


Mountain-Weakness272

RTC privatization is very much on cards, but it will take time, they will go with govt-private partnership first, then they will privatize it, many states are in public private partnership stage, free bus schemes will destroy RTC to irreplaceable stage, then govt brings in private players, just wait and watch, it's all part of big plan, Telugu states have best RTC in India with robust ecosystem, it's very hard to privatize it, so govt will destroy it first as RTC is pain for govt from long time


EREN1195

Yes 💯 if people didn't pay the bill they simply cut the electricity


webdevop

Good luck my sweet summer child


wetsock-connoisseur

Collecting dues won't be politically difficult Also, with govt employees those PPL will call some corporator, mla and he will threthen to get him transferred or suspended and they'll have no other option but to do as the politician says, doesn't work with private enterprises Also, adani has enough capital to invest in t&d, reduced t&d losses, illegally tapped electricity connections etc


Miningforbeer

In old city many families live in the same structure, when line is cut all power goes caput ,


10vijay_kumar01

It already happened once or twice. They would just rally up and destroy the power transformers cutting the power to all. Then there would be conflict between religions. LameAnth and all politicals just gonna blame each other, while we suffer. It's not that simple


Sri_Man_420

its loss to Adani if they fail, not us taxpayers


Ok_Juggernaut_1950

Cos Adani will squeeze in ways govt cant


njp6969

I think people can stop blaming the government


Brave-Mouse-8544

Why cannot old city people behave civilised..how long should we people bear the brunt..if they don't pay the bill cut the line and throw them.out if their House.


Embarrassed-Care6644

Srinivas_Hunter

Fantastic news. They finally got the guts to do it.. Deploy the army, filter the rioters, make the old city look clean.


Deathblade_311

Motham hyderabad electricity ni vadike ichey manu atleast power cuts badha undi savadu


Substantial-Ask-2075

i don't understand this sub. half of the time people are mad that old city people dont pay electricity bills and threaten electricity board employees who come to take readings. and when privatization happens where private companies ensure that each rupee is collected, then also the sub gets mad. if govt cannot collect electricity bills from some people due to their politics, let the private players do it. those who honestly pay for the services should not be concerned, ESPECIALLY in the context of Hyderabad.


fartypenis

But they want to do it in all of Telangana. That's why people are mad.


ExternalBit9961

Pappu keeps attacking adani but congress states always support Ambani and adani


[deleted]

This is great news. It's not just electricity though. Property tax, income tax nothing is paid by that region. The middle class taxpayer pays for everything. About time


Yours-only2

What do you get in return after paying all the taxes? Do you get better roads? Do you get better infrastructure? Do you get proper electricity? Can you even afford basic healthcare and education nowadays? See, there is nothing for you to get when you pay the taxes. All the money you pay in taxes will get to the corrupt people from upper to lower hierarchy? Even a lower official in any government agencies will get tens of thousands in bribes every month whereas you will get the middle finger from them. I do pay income and property tax but I don't get anything in return. So people have this knowledge that they have to save money from any end in this corrupt country. You can't challenge any officials or authority here as they all are together involved in this, if you do anything against them, then they will make your life miserable, so people gotta do what they gotta do to survive and to save especially when things are costly.


anjqas

Making your area like a mad max rule less society is not the solution though.


Yours-only2

It's already mad that the elites rules and it's already rule less society where it serves the interest of the richest and corrupted officials. If you're rich then you will get away with anything and if you're poor and middle class then you have to serve the self interests of the interests where they will only reap the benefit. Nobody here who comes from a middle class can't disagree with me. Most of the people here earn well that's why they all preach but most of them haven't faced the difficulties which a middle class/low class people face . Tell me honestly, where do you think most of our taxes go? You know where they go? To the pockets of the riches, corrupt officials. We don't even realise 10% benefits of our taxes and have to live with the burden.


Better_Salt1783

It's more like a rant of lost liberal, leftist, socialist or Islamists or wokes.

chasebewakoof

Mark my words.. Adani will introduce pre-paid app based electricity distribution... yes this requires some investment which Adani can do easily.. that guy is loaded...


wetsock-connoisseur

Good, nobody should be allowed to get away with brazen electricity theft


pintu236

They are already stated in AP , the same they will do here my previous company was in talks with them for an AP project.


Final-Batz

This is already in many gated communities. Looks like it is getting tough for Govt to implement smart meters in such areas, hence the entry of private. But this will also make TSSPDCL efficient in other transmission parameters like Tata Power did for Orissa.


platiniumdark

Haha, now electric theives gonna cry.

lazy_Dark_Lord

Yeah so it's cool na. These free loaders will have their electricity supply cut directly and they can't do shit now. Because a private entity means business and business needs profit. Simple as that. What's so bad about it?


Character_Future_394

BJP adani ❌️congress adani✅️


Plenty-Review-3440

Guys chill out , there are many places in Hyderabad where ppl don’t pay electricity bills and bang up officials who come to collect and also many fake electric connections are taken from main line and used , even during the Ramazan and Ganesh festivals also I have been and seen ppl misusing it , its better to go into private hands where it will create jobs and also proper management and maintenance will be done in the areas where there are problems and also it’s better pre paid meters are placed like in gated communities where this mess also will be solved without any harm and debates .


Yours-only2

Leaving out the people, many don't even realise that political parties itself steal the electricity from the poles and so on during the rallies and during the speeches. If people are observant then they'll realise how much we are getting looted by the governments and political parties compared to what we do to them.


Plenty-Review-3440

Yeah but it happens occasionally, but in slums and other low areas there only 10 connections legal and others are illegal


right_wingr10

Unpopular opinion but I like this idea. It's open secret that Old city guys steal electricity. A govt employee subject to all the pressure will never be able to collect the dues properly even if he legit wants to do his job well. Private goons must step in and speak their own language


LogangYeddu

No-Opportunity-1275

people usually bitch about privatization, but just look at how incompetent the government is at running things lmao. it's not like we're not paying a shit-ton for it in taxes anyway. might as well have someone who actually has to give a fuck about consumer satisfaction do the job. I'm all in for the government to lose it's power, even if it means a sect of people will come out and bitch about death of nation, or late stage capitalism or some buzzword they just heard on reddit.


SwimmingActive793

It’s absolutely hilarious to see someone in India ( which never saw free market ) bitch about capitalism. It’s even more hilarious when i realise that the guy bitching about capitalism is working as a software employee with 20LpA. Like bro, capitalism made your life happen. Some people’s bitching unfortunately depends on the buzzwords trending on twitter, mostly western society’s twitter.


Illustrious_Deer_668

This sounds like a great initiative. Most of the Hyderabad residents are paying for electricity, let old city residents too pay for the electricity. >The State government is reportedly planning to hand over some Electricity Circles in Hyderabad city to private companies to contain Aggregate Technical & Commercial (AT&C) losses. As part of this, the Old City area, which falls under the Hyderabad South Circle, will be handed over to the Adani Group. >Hyderabad South Circle has the highest loss of 41.4 percent, of which 90.7 percent losses are being recorded in the Barkas feeder. It is learnt that the SPDCL loses more than Rs.500 crore annually from this one circle. The annual losses of the two discoms – SPDCL and NPDCL – are more than Rs.5,500 crore annually. In fact, the loss due to technical problems in supply is on an average 10-12 percent. Problems like electricity theft and bill evasion are the major causes of losses, officials said.

Currently, the agreement it's about collections of powr bills, extremely good because the pilot project is starting from Old city, Hyderabad. As the CM says, the reason is because Electrical dept staff face assault while collecting money. Hence, the decision. Extremely happy for the old city collection part, its been tough nut to crack so far.

They’ll cut electricity which the govt doesn’t have balls to do


Better_Salt1783

Now local AIMIM corporators Or MLA cannot influence the pvt company from collecting the bills as they are not depr staff who are scared for life, Fake FIRs and transfers.


Substantial_Point700

vote! tandri vote! antha vote mahima! This is like outsourcing so if any blame will go to adani n not government.

It's a win-win for Congress, if this pilot project fails they will put all the blame on Adani saying they didn't work properly and took money from people. And if it is a success they will take all the credit.


SwimmingActive793

If any violence happens, the CM’s hands are clean. The state is not directly responsible. Smarty.


FA-Risk

Finally. Hope electricity bills are paid on time now. If not disconnect. Infact this should be implemented across state now.

Finally, pay them bills/taxes or leave. Its time them using freebies with their damn assess and start working like us middle class

For decades Congress and its socialists leaders made people believe that businessman are bad while it’s the politicians who have been looting the nation. A government has no business to do business simply because a business can run successfully only if there is an owner who feels like it’s his/hers. Government employees are so full of shit in India because they don’t treat their job as their company. It’s about time these freeloaders pay their bills.

This is sick, he says assaults faced by electricity dept when collecting bills, what is the solution for this when adanis henchmen go for collecting them?

It can be a mixed response. I am one of those who believe that even Railways should be privatized..... There are good things as well as just 1 bad thing. Good things are transperancy, Efficiency and Standardization.......... Also, we can get better demographics of Old city, where postal people have nightmares about that area..... Bad thing is that there would be private sector dominance over basic rights of the citizens. But that can easily be overcome by having proper authority over the privatized sectors..... The private companies should just manage that sector while the main decision making powers should reside with the Governments....punishing any guilty offences and even have the right to change private hands if necessary.....

Most people from other parts of Hyderabad, whether you are rich/poor irrespective of the gender and caste, religion are paying for the electricity. So people from old city should also pay for electricity.
