Article 13 raises grave concerns about Amaila hydro power price tag

The Amaila Falls

Civil society group Article 13 yesterday raised grave concerns over the price tag for the Amaila Falls Hydro Power project and it blistered the government over the overwhelming foreign domination of the recent energy expo here.

Article 13 which was formed last year says it is  not satisfied about the wisdom of pursuing the Amaila project with all its costly risks.

It flayed the awarding of a  construction contract without simultaneously entering a Power Purchase Agreement as putting the cart before the horse.
