Jharkhand Chief Minister Arjun Munda today renewed his demand for shifting Damodar Valley Corporation's headquarters to Jharkhand from West Bengal and urged that the next DVC chairman be from the state. "It has been the demand for several years, and it is a legitimate demand as Jharkhand is deprived of revenue," Munda told newsmen here. "We have also written a letter to the Union Power Ministry to appoint the next chairman of DVC from Jharkhand," he said and added some names were also recommended in this regard.He reminded that earlier chairmen used to be appointed on rotational basis between Bihar and West Bengal before Jharkhand was carved out.
