Mysore/Mysuru: Admitting that the State is facing power crisis due to poor monsoon, Chief Minister Siddharamaiah said that he has directed the authorities to purchase power from other States.
Speaking to presspersons at his residence in T.K. Layout here yesterday, he said the State needs nearly 3,000 MW power to meet the current demand. Blaming the previous BJP Government for power crisis as it failed to enhance power generation, Siddharamaiah said he has also directed sugar factories to step up power production.
