Is this a banana republic, asks Delhi High Court on Delhi-Haryana water row

NEW DELHI: The fight between Delhi and Haryana over supply of water, or lack of it, to the national capital today prompted the Delhi High Court to remark whether this is a "banana republic". 

"Two states of the country are fighting with each other. Is this a banana republic?" a bench of justices B D Ahmed and Siddharth Mridul asked after hearing the allegations levelled against each other by Delhi Jal Board (DJB) and Haryana's irrigation department. 

The two sides could not agree even on the issue of whom to appoint for measuring the supply of water in Munak, with Haryana saying no Delhi-based expert or institute shall undertake the exercise, while DJB arguing that no central authority will carry out the measurement.

Worst Airtel Network / connectivity in Krishna nagar

Strange & Shocking. Since last few months i faced severe connectivity problem on my Mobile. I was told that one of the Tower had been removed from Lal quarter area and as a result the network is not working properly. I was assured that a New Tower is in pipeline & soon things will improve. 

Though i made regular complaints, i took it more seriously a few days ago. As a result an Engineer of Airtel via Ericsson visited us and CONFIRMED that it was the WORST AIRTEL NETWORK and can be called NO NETWORK.

I just want to check with my friends from Krishna nagar to contact me if they too are facing the same problem as the removal of tower will have its impact on a good number of Airtel users.

Sewer in our area is overflowing ?????

It is being informed that sewer in our area is overflowing and small portion of the sewage pipeline is damaged. It was informed at all the levels but we have not got the relief. Now they have excused that joint director finance of DJB is not releasing the fund. It is become very difficult to live. Finally we are requesting for help to get relief from the problem

DDA Water Charges ?

I am secretary of RWA Mayur Vihar Phase-III. Water supply in our area through DDA, Resident of our pocket paying water charges to DDA against Bill sent by DDA half yearly basis from last 15 years. Now we have received demand letter of increase water charges from 01.04.2012 (letter attached for your information). DDA has never told us to increase the rate of water and now suddenly demand around Rs. 7,500.00 as previous balance for last 3 years. It is not justified, if DJB increase the rate, DDA should inform us in 2012, 2103 & 2014 respectively. Without inform us from last 3 years, how can they demand the same?

We have met DDA and raise our issue, but they asked they can not do any thing. we also met our area Counseller and Mr. Mahesh Giri ji but no result till date.

kindly suggest, what should we do to resolve this issue. your cooperation in this regards will be highly appreciated. 

With Best Regards,
