AT an all-party round table held in Vijayawada on Thursday, political leaders and energy experts unanimously demanded that the government scrap the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) deal, register an FIR against those involved, and launch a full-scale investigation into what they called a "sellout" of Andhra Pradesh's energy future for the next 25 years.

The meeting was organised by the Centre for Liberty (CFL) and moderated by its founder Nalamotu Chakravarthy.

Speakers at the session condemned the State's ongoing inaction despite earlier opposition to the deal by the ruling coalition when it was signed under the previous YSRCP government.
