DERC Rejects Discoms' Tariff Hike Demand

In a major setback to the power distribution companies in the Capital, the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) has once again rejected the contentions of discoms seeking hike in power tariff. Hardening its position on the ongoing faceoff over the power tariff dispute, the DERC has shot off letters to all three private discoms rejecting their arguments point-by-point, demanding an increasing in the rates. 

 

The Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission also sent a letter to the Government, believed to be sympathetic to the demands by the discoms, strongly objecting to any hike in tariff. The letters to discoms as well as to the Government from the DERC came days after a top official in the Chief Minister's office said genuine demands of the discoms must be addressed by the regulatory board while finalising the new electricity rates.

In its letter to Tata backed discom - NDPL - the DERC said the company made a profit of Rs 468.82 crore in 2009-10, which increased from Rs 169.60 crore in 2004-05, an increase of 176 per cent. The regulator also charged NDPL of giving "figures without any basis" in its representation to the Government demanding a hike while ignoring the fact that the audited accounts for 2009-10 showed a cash profit of Rs 468.82 crore. 

Also rejecting the discom's arguement that banks have refused to lend money to the company for its poor financial position, DERC said credit rating agency ICRA has given NDPL high credit quality rating for its healthy financial position.

No Right To Probe Cops : RTI Activist Harassed By Police ?

Thirty-two year old Goverdhan Singh has paid a heavy price for running a campaign against corruption in his native district of Bikaner.

 

A 100 Right to Information (RTI) applications filed by him exposed corruption in banks and government departments, but things got uncomfortable for Goverdhan when he asked questions about the properties and assets of police personnel. Overnight there were nine FIRs lodged against him.

"As soon as I filed an RTI application against the police, they started putting cases against me, so that I stop my activism," said Goverdhan..

The police also raided his house, seized his car and locked his office. Goverdhan's family members say they are being constantly harassed.

"The police threaten us. They say they will kill my son in an encounter," says Goverdhan's wife The People's Union for Civil Liberties investigated the matter and came back with a report of extreme police high-handedness, forcing the government to transfer the Bikaner SP. But surprisingly, even now the role of the police is being investigated by the police themselves.

"Initially the local police station was probing the case, now it will be probed by a Deputy SP," said Bikaner SP, Habib Khan Goran.

PGC HEARING REGARDING ENCROACHMENT of madhuvan road BY Universal Public School preet vihar

Chairman Public grievances commission new delhi held hearing
of above mentioned case
KK GHEI complainant versus MCD.
MCD officers or authorised person was absent as was the case in earlier hearings also.
One of the reason is that Commissioner MCD was directed in earlier hearing to send STATUS REPORT.
Order passed earlier by PGC MEMBER has not been implemented so far.
This case was initiated on reference from sh.naseeb singh Hon'ble MLA to chairman PGC IN 2008.
MC of our society resolved in 2005 to check status from MCD AND DDA ABOUT OUR 15 FT ROAD running at the back of houses from 68 to 77 on the eastern side of madhuvan.
Surprisingly, despite admission by DDA of encroachment of above road (by above mentioned school)in report to Lt.government nothing has been done.
So, now our last hope is the authority of chairman PGC.
Hope at least order from said authority may be able to elicit reply from Commissioner MCD.

Game Set : Delhi Gets Its Latest Architectural Marvel

Delhi will soon have a new tourist spot, just in time for the Commonwealth Games.  

Guru Tegh Bahadur Memorial, an architectural marvel that promises to give an insight into the life and teachings of the Ninth Guru of Sikhs, is ready and likely to be inaugurated soon.

Constructed along National Highway 1 (GT Karnal Road) near Singh Border by Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation (DTTDC), the memorial would be known for his architecture, design and world class illumination.

"It has a unique concept. The central pylon represents Guru Tegh Bahadur while the three semi-arches represent his three disciples. Ten mono- liths around it represents ten Sikh Gurus and disseminate their teachings," chief engineer Jose Kurian said.

Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit, who also has the charge of the tourism department, visited the memorial on Saturday evening and commented that this architectural marvel would also be known for its greenery and soothing landscape.

Mobile phone service towers are health hazard and our BLOG

Kindly recall that our blog high lighted RISKS AND GREED OF OFFICERS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS which has resulted into authorised and unauthorised such towers in residential colonies and locations where public go for health check ups and to obtain other services.
Even venues of CWG games are not safe.
Our concern now is to at least concentrate in TRANSYAMUNA AREA.
Despite appearing in this blog, my submission was published in CITYPLUS under captioned of TOWERS OF SHAME.
It is high time that all RWAS,CITIZEN GROUPS MUST RAISE THIS ISSUE IN ALL AVENUES CHANNELS LIKE BHAGIDARI AND IN MEETINGS WITH DY.COMMISSIONER MCD plus in news channels and tv channels.
Let us EXPOSE nexus and get all concerned punished and imprisoned so that there is terror in the mind of such greedy persons who enrisk our and our children lives.

Kindly  Water Is Not  coming In Kotla Area .

BSES--Poor quality work

I got an electric meter of 1 KW installed for car garage adjoining  my DDA flat. Garage is also allotted by DDA. First BSES demanded RS. 3600 for the same. But on protest for overcharging they reduced it to Rs. 600.

 

Meter was installed within 3 days but the aluminium cable they have used is substandard. In fact it is unsafe for use. It does not have PVC covering of proper thickness and much more.

Radiation City

1,800 CELL TOWERS IN 2006. 6,000 NOW. BARE MINIMUM RADIATION LEVELS IN 2006. A THOUSAND TIMES MORE NOW. THERE’S A NEW THREAT IN DELHI, REPORTS RISHI MAJUMDER.

HOW SAFE ARE YOU  ?  EXCLUSIVE TEHELKA 100 SPOT RADIATION SURVEY
“People do not understand,” he says. “Because radiation, unlike air, water and sound pollution, cannot be seen or felt. most Indians have only started using cell phones over the past 10 years.” Dastur says he notices that his employees, like his family members, are already complaining of increasing headaches and extreme fatigue. “In five years, emr will be the number one killer after heart attacks.”

● Forty of the 100 spots have “extreme anomaly” in radiation levels. This means the levels are close to seven times the safe limit. These are high risk areas. The readings were so high at times that the device used to measure the radiation, a High Frequency Analyser, could not record the radiation anymore
●Thirty-one spots have “unsafe” radiation levels. This means the levels are two to six times the safe limit
● Nine spots are “borderline”, just over the safe limit
● Only 20 of the 100 spots surveyed in Delhi have safe radiation levels
● Connaught place and khan Market, two of Delhi’s top marketplaces, have extreme anomaly
● Safdarjung hospital, Modern School in Vasant Vihar, the Delhi Police headquarters, and the ISKCON temple fall in areas with extreme anomaly
●The prime Minister’s residence, 7 Race Course Road, is in the borderline zone
●The All india Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), india’s premier healthcare institution, is in a borderline area
● 10 Janpath, where Congress president Sonia Gandhi lives, is safe
● Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit is safe at her official residence, 3 Motilal Nehru Place
●The opening and closing ceremonies, and the athletics competition, of the Commonwealth Games will be held in unsafe areas
●The Yamuna Sports Complex, where the Games table tennis and archery competitions will be held, is unsafe

Cell radiation is slow poison. Effects begin with fatigue and could end in cancer. It is nearfatal for ones with pacemakers.

The Delhi Metro, another great beacon of progress, is also emitting levels of radiation that are beyond safe norms. This is another worrisome blind spot.

THE MEDICAL CONSEQUENCES

Hazards from EMR range from short to long term. A headache today could mean a tumour tomorrow.

IMMEDIATELY Could hinder pacemakers and ICDs, which could be fatal for patients

3 YEARS Appetite loss, sleep disorders, headaches, short term memory loss

4-5 YEARS Tinnitus, muscle spasms, visual disorder, skin ailments

5-10 YEARS Drop in sperm count, cardio and respiratory problems

8-10 YEARS Acoustic neuroma, brain tumour, leukaemia
