Chief minister Kiran Kumar Reddy has telephoned TDP leader Errabelli Dayakar Rao and asked him to withdraw cheating case he filed in the Punjagutta police station. It may be mentioned here that Errabelli 'slapped cheating case' against  Kiran Kumar Reddy alleging that he failed to keep his promise to farmers on electricity. It is known that CM earlier promised that farmers would be provided seven hours of uninterrupted power supply. Since farmers were not getting sever hours of power, Errabelli approached the police. Things seemed to have, however, settled after CM gave a buzz on Errabelli's phone.

Kiran explained Errabelli that acute power shortage occurred in the state due to deficit rainfall. He reportedly even mentioned that the state government was spending Rs. 12 crore for solving the power supply problem.
