CITU Expresses Grave Concern Over Future of Damodar Valley Corporation

The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) has voiced serious concerns over the future of the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), accusing the Central and West Bengal governments of undermining the organization. This comes in response to West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee's letter blaming DVC for recent floods and announcing severed ties.

The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) has raised alarms about the future of Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), accusing both the West Bengal and Union governments of conspiring against the organization.

The statement follows West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing DVC of causing floods in South Bengal by unilaterally releasing water.

CITU condemned Banerjee's comments and highlighted the Union Government's actions, including a plan to privatize DVC's power segment, which they warn could have devastating impacts on the corporation.
