TARRIF AND DERC

With kind encouragement of our president sh.bs vohra ji, i got the chance to speak in hearing of oral submission regarding tarrif enhancement claimed by discoms in delhi. I made the following points :

LAST YEAR on the basis of data and arguments by rwas, DERC WAS CONVINCED that there is ground for decrease in tarrif and not enhancement demanded by discoms. THIS ORDER WAS NOT IMPLEMENTED BY CM DELHI. POINT IS Whether DERC IS A STATUROY BODY OR TO MAKE ONLY RECOMMENDATIONS. WHY CM DID NOT TAKE PUBLIC INTO CONFIDENCE IN OUTRIGHT REJECTING ORDERS OF DERC.

SECOND POINT WAS COST ESCALATION and theft of energy. WHO IS PAYING FOR THEFT? Surely, honest customers are now being made to pay for the pilfered energy. Prior to privitatisation and in desu days, DESU WAS NOT ALLOWED TO INCREASE TARIFF DUE TO SEVERAL  CONSIDERATIONS. SO WAS THE STATUS OF OTHER STATE ELECTRICITY BOARDS IN INDIA.

THE so called losses running in several crores were waived off by government.But now the honest  consumers are made to pay by way of enhanced tarrif. For the sake of brevity, i am closing this mail. But rest assure , our government of the day is hand in glove with discoms, and our cries shall fall on deaf ears.

Well begin is half done

Historic moment is arriving at 4pm on sunday 29th august at A 78 madhuvan.
We have to decide periodicity of monthly meetings.
We have to decide subscription, and about framing of constitution,getting edjf registered,preparation of list of founder members and completion of phone book of all members of MC.
First meeting will be a longish affair.
Perhaps we could prepare resolutions on above in advance so that each item is introduced and decided in reasonable time.
To popularize our front, we must start writing our edjf post when we write posts.
Kindly attend meeting punctually.
