Open Letter To Independent Directors Of Reliance Energy From Investors

Dear Sir/Madam

1. As independent directors on the board of Reliance Energy, did you support the
move to transfer all power projects of REL to Reliance Power?
2. Did you not feel it unfair on small investors (public) and FIs to transfer
existing and all future revenue earnings of Reliance Energy to Reliance Power?
3. Do you know that Reliance Energy did not inform the stock exchanges about
transfer of projects to Reliance Power -- a development affecting its future
earnings?
4. What have you done to protect the interests of small investors (public) and FIs
in Reliance Energy?
5. By your silence are you not supporting the moves of promoters to transfer assets
of Reliance Energy to Reliance Power without a care for the views and interests of
the shareholders?
6. Did you know about the merger of Reliance Power with Reliance Public Utility
Private Ltd and that approval for the merger was obtained from Mumbai high court
without disclosing the Reliance Power IPO plans?
7. Don\'t you think that the role of independent directors is to ensure that
corporate governance norms are never violated and public trust is always upheld. Can
this objective be achieved by keeping quiet when rules are flouted as in the case of
Reliance Energy-Reliance Power?

Investors of Reliance Energy and all small investors across the nation would like to
know if their interests are being protected by independent directors or is their
role really just to serve corporate interests?

Highest regards
Veekay Arora, Spokesperson, REL Investors Forum
