<h1>National power engineers federation urges government to revoke decision to privatise two distribution companies, warns of private monopolies</h1> A national power engineers' federation has formally urged the state government to revoke its decision to privatise two state-owned distribution companies, arguing the Draft Electricity (Amendment) Bill 2025 permits public distribution corporations to continue while allowing private firms network access and thus conflicts with a policy of full privatisation. The federation warns the planned transfer of all districts served by those companies to a private operator would create private monopolies, announces intent to send formal letters to the union power ministry and the state executive, and signals continued coordinated employee protests opposing the bill and the privatization move.
