Public Grivance Commission Hon'ble member Sh.Gupta had ordered in 2009 that SDM PREET VIHAR SHALL TAKE COGNISANCE OF ENCROACHMENT ON PUBLIC PASSAGE OF MADHUVAN NEW DELHI(by UNIVERSAL PUBLIC SCHOOL PREET VIHAR NEW DELHI) . The road was to be restored within two months to public passage.
Unfortunately this order remains on paper only.
Today hearing was to review status. I attended hearing but UNFORTUNATELY NONE WAS PRESENT FROM MCD SHAHDARA SOUTH ZONE. The next hearing date shall be ordered by honourable member of PGC. MC of DOCHBS LTD Madhuvan new delhi decided in 2005 for further appropriate action to ensure restoration of road for public use.Since then i as Hoy.secretary had been raising this matter in bhagidari meetings,and with VICE CHAIRMAN DDA, COMMISSIONER MCD. MLA and area councillor but the school authorities are powerful in every sense of the word. A private individual has got the guts to ignore law of the land and defy authorities. The school is unconcerned school building was denied completion certificate by MCD. The school premises are being misused to run office and residential quarters. Even inspections by top officers of MCD AND DDA FAILED TO CURB THIS ILLEGAL ACTIVITY.
MCD IS FAILING IN ITS DUTY TO BOOK SCHOOL AUTHORITIES FOR ALL ILLEGALITIES.
I had been threatened by goons.
My humble request to all of you is...please help us to restore road for public use from the clutches of private individuals running this school. Even TV channel coverage and front page coverage in news paper is not having any effect.
Where should we go to get justice.

Water scarcity in delhi and intentioanal neglect of society tube wells
We read that next war could be on account of sharing of water between nations. Suggestions have been floated like slicing ice berg and towing them to water scacity area.
Delhi is facing acute water shortage and even winter months are no exception.
But strangely some time back a decision had been wrongly taken to keep tube wells of societies in operative.
I refer to our Delhi Officer's House Building Society Ltd Madhuvan New Delhi 110092.
Society handed over potable water supply arrangements to MCD in 1995 and our filtered water supply pump had been operational for couple of years. Mr.Sudhir pump operator was on MCD pay role for operation of tube well.
Now i am informed that tube well along with water filterational equipment has been lying inoperational because DJB has taken some decision not to operate these tube wells.
There could be hundreds of such installations through out delhi. To not to augment water supply arrangements is beyond my thinking.
I fervently appeal that all societies and others having such arrangements must impress upon our elected representatives and DJB AUTHORITIES TO MAKE THESE TUBE WELLS OPERATIONAL and help to reduce water scacity.

Delhi jal nigam water bills
We are able to pay our bills online for power, telephone, internet etc. But Jal Nigam has lagged behind in offering this service. Jal Nigam should take this up on a fast track.

'Inflated' water bills trouble Lajpat Nagar III
Lajpat Nagar III residents are tired of complaining the DJB authorities about getting bills that they claim are inflated. "The billing system is not at all satisfactory. They send bills without taking actual reading. It seems that the bills are sent on assumption basis," complains Harvinder Singh, president, Lajpat Nagar III RWA. "If a resident receives an inflated bill, DJB officials don't rectify the bills and instead instructed the consumer to pay part of the amount," adds Harvinder.PP Singh, a senior citizen and an agitated resident got a bill that he had never expected. He says that he had been charged on the basis of the commercial rate of his flat. "I own the front portion of basement of House number E 21 in Lajpat Nagar III and for which I am using under ground water of submersible pumps. I had already informed DJB office by writing letters to their office," he says.
PP Singh says when DJB authorities had accepted his plea earlier, then why was this issue raised again. "This makes a clear case of harassment to a senior citizen. If bills like this surprise us every time, then what else can we expect from authorities?" he asks.
"Earlier, DJB used to provide its own water meters and then there used to be no problem. But, this system changed and now there are private water meters installed at each house. What we want from the DJB is that they should provide their own water meters and must take charge of their maintenance, so that whatever problem is there with the meter, it must be under the control of DJB." suggests PP Singh.
Angry residents accompanied by RWA members met CM Sheila Dikshit and apprised her about their problems. The CM phoned DJB CEO Ramakant Goswamy, who in process assured to look into the matter personally.
"We held a camp for inflated bills and submitted the same to DJB. We hope now our problems will be solved," hopes Harvinder.

We get what we deserve
Majority of us believe in Karam phal. We are reaping what we have sown in past life. We are constantly evolving by either moving upward or down ward.Good deeds and meditation will lead us up the ladder and vice versa.
What is moksha to many may mean reward of meditation or tapasy in jungle for years to gather. Buddhist and jains lay stress on good actions. Christians lay stress on serving mankind.
Scientists in their own way believe in above theories. Action and reaction will also lead to above.
It is then surprising why we indulge in illegalities of every conceivable type,like grabbing of public spaces, stealing electricity, willfully avoidance of taxes and disobediance of traffic signals.
Perhaps we feel law is to be implemented by weakest persons of society.
We can get away by muscle or money power.
What image we are presenting to world beyond indian borders.
Vohra ji what is your take on the subject.

No Dip In Retail Food Prices, Mandi Rates Have Come Down But Veggies Remain Expensive
Monthly household budgets had not recovered from last year's onslaught of high food prices when the current year threw in more shockers for Delhiites. From milk to packaged food, not to mention vegetables and fruits, an ordinary diet is no longer very affordable. Wholesale prices seem to have no impact on the retail market as vegetables continue to remain expensive even though mandi prices have come down in the past month.
Sources say that some vegetables had become very expensive in March but their prices have come down now. Ladyfinger, bottlegourd, capsicum and tomato had also seen a price rise since January but by April most vegetables had become much cheaper, at least in the wholesale market. ``There was a problem of inbetween crops, that is at the end of one crop and the beginning of a new one. During this time, whatever little vegetable is available in the market would be sold very expensive. The retail market exploits this situation even more. However, right now the supply is sufficient to meet the current demand,'' said Mukesh Tiwari, chairman, Ghazipur vegetable mandi.
Sources however pointed out that this had made no difference to the retail market. ``The prices in retail market are still very high and a large part of the problem is the cold storage mafia. As far as potatoes go, this is a huge problem right now. The cold storage owners buy directly from the farmers at low rates and sell when the fresh supply starts dwindling. This is true for most vegetables that can be stored, including onions,'' said an official of the Delhi Agriculture Marketing Board.
