Proposed electricity tariff hike by BSES and delhites

Every year Private companies in Delhi expect increase in electricity rates without bothering about poor or middle class. BSES has failed to check theft or to meter energy supplied to street light and govt office including police stations. So,this burden is passed on to consumers. Why should i pay for the stolen electricity? Secondly, compare per kwhr energy billed in any comparable city served by STATE ELECTRICITY BOARD. Before privatisation, the Expenses in supplying electricity per kwh need to be compared with present charges.

Expenses are high because of over head high charges and purchase of equipment at exorbitant prices. We have to firm up our replies and submit before 4th Feb 2010 to DERC.

Kindly comment so that a proper replied could be firmed up.

    BSES BUSINESS MANAGERS, HQ, PUBLIC GRIEVANCES CELL DO NOT RESPOND TO GRIEVANCES OF CONSUMERS. AN EXAMPLE OF THIS IS REPRODUCED BELOW FOR INFORMATION TO ALL MEMBERS:

    Due to short circuiting on a pole with very healvy load, fire broke out in July 2009 which could not be extinguished by Firemen, policemen, BSES employees. They all joined the residents for hours till the fire got extinguished on its own. This affected closeby power connections including mine. We started getting inflated bills for which repeated complaints were lodged. Parallel meters have been installed on two of the three meters but the problem was in the bus bar (distribution box) before meters. In November, there was short-circuiting in the domestic bus bar which resulted in no-current. The LEDs indicating Earth Leakage were on in two meters. This complaint was attended to and it was found that previously when bus bar was fitted, no thimbals were used and the loosely tied wires caused short-circuiting. After this the LEDs showing earth leakage also were found 'off'. This wrong wiring in the bus bar was the main reason of inflated bills for which Mr. Jha, Business Manager, at Maya Enclave, Mr. Kapoor, DGM and Mr. DP Singh at B-1 Janakpuri No Current Office were met and handed a detailed letter of my complaint narrating the reason of receiving the inflated bills. Today, it is Jan. 18 and this letter was personally delivered on Nov.18, 2009. No reply or action has been found till date. This is the state of affairs at BSES ground level which needs immediate rectification by DERC and Delhi Government. TPS OBEROI, VICE-PRESIDENT, WELFARE ASSN. G BLOCK HARI NAGAR (REGD) 18-01-2010
