The Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry has decided to move the Madras High Court seeking relief from power cuts, affecting the southern districts with load shedding of 12-16 hours each day.
It proposes to plead for equitable distribution of available power across the State and seek a direction to the authorities to provide at least eight hours of continuous power supply every day, besides halting the night-time power cuts.
These decisions follow a consultative meeting of various trade and industry bodies organised here on Tuesday by the Chamber.
It has been resolved, further, to stage a demonstration in front of the Madurai Regional Office of Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation on October 22 to press the demands.
