Energy Minister AK Sharma Faces Allegations Amid Power Sector Strikes

Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister AK Sharma is embroiled in a controversy, with allegations suggesting that certain elements are targeting him amid the power department's ongoing strikes over privatization.

Shared via social media, Sharma's office claimed that some disruptive forces have waged a campaign against him during his three-year tenure, which saw multiple strikes planned shortly after he took office.

As the protests continue, questions about the privatization process have arisen, with counterclaims challenging the narrative around the minister's involvement and support for privatization decisions being made at higher levels of state administration.
