No Power Tariff Hike In Delhi This Year : Dikshit

Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit Monday said that the power tariff in the national capital will not be hiked in fiscal 2010-11.

'There will be no hike in power tariffs in 2010-11,' the chief minister said.

The Delhi government had May 4 asked power regulator Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) not to reduce tariff in the city. The state government and the power discoms wanted a hike in power rates.

The move had invited ire of the opposition parties which accused the state government of siding with the power distributing companies -- BSES Yamuna, BSES Rajdhani and North Delhi Power Limited (NDPL).

The DERC after going through audit of the power companies had decided to reduce the power tariff by 20 percent, a move opposed by the companies.

When asked about DERC's observation that the discoms did not give correct financial details in their representations to the state government, she said: 'I do not think they lied to us.'

Asked about the government's May 4 direction to DERC, she said: 'The discoms approached us with a representation and so we only asked the power regulator to look into their grievances before finalising the tariff.'

A highly-placed government government source had June 10 told IANS that there will be no hike in tariff of power till the October Commonwealth Games.

Dikshit also holds the power portfolio.

Wheat, rice at low rates

With the Central Government making a special ad hoc allocation of additional quota of wheat and rice for the Capital, Delhi Food and Supplies Minister Haroon Yusuf has said that both these grains would now be provided at very low rates at fair price shops to all ration card holders.

Mr. Yusuf said while wheat would be sold at Rs.9.15 per kg, rice would be made available at Rs.12.55 per kg through the PDS. He said the Delhi Government has taken the initiative to immediately pass on the benefit of the largesse of the Centre to the people.

Stating that these rations would be available to Above Poverty Line card holders too, Mr. Yusuf said the move was aimed at controlling prices and helping the needy. The Minister said each card holder would be provided 14.25 kg of wheat and 3.75 kg of rice at the new rates.

He also announced that all APL stamped card holders would benefit from the scheme. There would be no need to produce income certificates for availing of the scheme.

Those concerned officers who has not given ATR, D.O. letter will be send to the Chief Minister Office to take action  against them said by the SDM(Vivek Vihar). This is good step taken by the SDM(Vivek Vihar). Shri Ram Avtar Yadav, SHO (P.S. Farsh Bazar) had called a meeting of RWA's, but he has not informed all the cocerned RWA's. He has not called the SDM (Vivek Vihar) also in this meeting. He has appolised before the Bhagidari meetng and said this mistake will not be repeat in the future.

Delhi Divided, Ministers Now Have Their Own Areas To Look After

All Cabinet ministers in Delhi have been asked to watch their terrain and ensure there are no lapses during the Commonwealth Games.

In an informal meeting convened by Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Wednesday all ministers were warned that the smallest oversight can lead to major embarrassment during the Games.

"Her main concern was that the deadlines for several projects that are already stretched thin should be met at all cost. Another reason for asking us to oversee work is that she does not want aesthetics of projects compromised in the last-minute rush," said a minister.

Ministers have, therefore, been asked to take charge of parts of the city they live in.

Education minister Arvinder Singh Lovely has been told to monitor progress at the Games Village and Yamuna Sports Complex, which has faced a lot of flak due to the delays and also for its design. The project has been undertaken by the Delhi Development Authority.
