Press Trust of India

Chennai: Taking a dig at the ruling AIADMK on the power front, DMK chief M Karunanidhi on Wednesday said the prevailing power scenario was a "good example" of the government's 'achievements.'

"In the budget presented in August last, it was mentioned that power cuts would come down in phases in 2012, and there would be no power cut at all by August of this year," he said.

Writing in his party organ 'Murasoli,' Karunanidhi referred to Chief Minister Jayalalithaa's recent announcement that there would be no power cut from 2013, and asked "what will she say in 2013?"

On reports about eight-hour power cuts in the state, he said this would affect about 40,000 industrial units in Coimbatore.

"Are these not good examples of AIADMK government's achievements?" he asked sarcastically.
