Hyderabad: AP Transco has vacated Vidyut Soudha, the building at Somajiguda in Hyderabad, which had been the nerve centre of power in united Andhra Pradesh as part of the government’s plans to shift the administration to Vijayawada.
APGenco is also likely to shift its base from Vidyut Soudha to Vijay-awada within a month.
After the bifurcation of the state, power tran-smission and generati-on corporations of both AP and Telangana were functioning separately from Vidyut Soudha.
However, Transco dec-ided to shift its headqu-arters to its new building at Gunadala sub-station near Vijayawada, following the governm-ent’s decision to shift its entire administration to AP capital region. AP Genco too will be shifting to this building.
Almost all heads of the departments have shifted their operations from Hyderabad to AP capital region. AP State Elect-ion Commission office, which is currently functioning from Secretariat in Hyderabad, will also be shifted to Vijayawada in June.
