DTP against overloading of school vans and buses

Dear Mr Vohra,
            
You must be aware about the drive started by DTP against overloading of school vans and buses.Kindly take up the issue with Transport dept to increase the number of special school buses during school hours.With a likely hike in petrol prices this month coupled with DTPs long overdue corrective action the school transportation charges are going to go up.Education department should coordinate with transport dept to ease the situation.This will help, not so well off parents and furthermore it wont be one of the deterrants in the Govt vision of realising the dream of education for all.

Residents to help councillors in deciding funds

It is an excellent idea and people will shower their blessings. People's confidence will boost up and ensure that the money is well spent. This will also ingrain in their minds that govt. is responsive and receptive to their woes. The million dollar question is will it be translated into action or it will become like any other public announcements to get mileage in the media! Let's watch and comment!

Residents to help councillors in deciding funds

NEW DELHI: With an aim to connect better with residents of Delhi, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) is launching a new initiative - resident ward committee - under which RWAs will assist councillors in deciding expenditure for development work in their wards. The initiative will be launched by Delhi Mayor P R Sawhney on Wednesday.

"This will ensure better coordination between resident welfare associations and MCD. RWAs are better informed about the pertinent problems. They can provide quality inputs when it comes to the development of the ward," said Sawhney.

It will be mandatory for all councillors to conduct a monthly meeting with all RWA representatives from his/her ward. The minutes of the resident ward committee meeting will be sent to the Mayor's office. "Councillors will be expected to prepare a list of important development work which needs to be done in their respective areas. Depending on the priority list, councillors will allocate funds. When MCD is spending so much money for the development of the city, we should take into consideration the problems faced by our citizens and try to solve it.,'' said Sawhney.

How To Stop Pesky Calls And SMSes

Don't want to be annoyed by unwanted commercial calls and SMSes? Here's all that you should know about Telecom Regulatory Authority of India's  (TRAI) new regulations to give your mobile phone a little rest.
 
The new guidelines set by TRAI was supposed to be effective on February 1, 2011. The initial deadline of January 1 was extended by a month. Now TRAI has further pushed it to March 1.

A new set of guidelines became necessary due to the limited success of TRAI's earlier initiatives. The National Do Not Call Registry was somewhat effective in reducing the number of unsolicited calls but indirectly led to an increase in the number of unsolicited SMSes landing in consumers' inboxes.

Under the new guidelines consumers can choose their preference to receive or not to receive commercial communication from seven pre-defined categories. Users also have the option to either block all commercial calls and SMSes or to block only commercial calls while receiving SMSes of their choice.

Consumers have two choices, they can register in one of the two categories:
1. Fully blocked category: Consumers will not receive any commercial communication on their phones either as voice calls or SMSes.
2. Partially blocked category: Consumer will not receive any voice calls, but can choose to receive SMSes on any or some or all from seven pre-defined subjects:
a. Banking/insurance/financial products/credit cards
b. Real estate
c. Education
d. Health
e. Consumer goods and automobiles
f. Communication/broadcasting/entertainment/IT
g. Tourism and leisure

Forget Cards, Now Shop All You Want Using Your Cellphone

 
Airtel subscribers in the city no longer need to fumble through their wallets for their credit or debit cards to make a payment. Paying for a transaction is now as simple as dialing a number from your mobile. For, the telecom giant has chosen Gurgaon as cell. India for the launch of Airtel Money, a mobile wallet service.
 
The service, which was launched in Gurgaon on Monday, enables a consumer to pay their utility bills, recharge their accounts, shop, book tickets and even pay for their groceries.

Airtel Money will subsequently be launched in Delhi-NCR and other cities in India in a phased manner.

Circle Rates Hike May Double As Centre Clears Air Over Issue

Circle rates in the city are likely to double very soon. The Central government has finally settled the controversy over the revision of property rates after the issue had reached a deadlock with chief minister Sheila Dikshit, and lieutenant governor Tejendra Khanna locking horns over the matter. It is learnt that the Union home ministry on Monday evening conveyed the legal view to the state that the subject of circle rates falls under the transferred list of subjects and hence the L-G has to act with the aid and advice of the council of ministers of the state.
 

 
This means that the decision of the cabinet prevails and the state government's decision to double the existing circle rates is likely to become a reality soon. The L-G's role is limited to giving a formal approval in this case, considering the fact that the state has been unrelenting on its stance.

Smarting from the L-G's ticking off that she was wrongly claiming credit for the success of the Commonwealth Games, Dikshit had turned the circle rate issue into a case of Raj Niwas' overbearing behaviour. The CM had apprised the Union minister for home affairs, P Chidambaram, on the issue of circle rates in November.

Rs. 200.00 has been levied by DJB on Non Working Meter.

Mr. B S Vohra Ji,
                        
DJB has levied Rs, 200 on Non Working Meter.
Plz take this matter before the CM-CUM-CHAIRPERSON of DJB.

Thanks & Regards,
D K Gupta,
Advocate
President
Bhola Nath Nagar JRWA

DJB'S WATER TARIFF VERY HIGH

I was shocked to see my water bills for the last three quarters; they  have just tripled.
The 'sewerage charge' is as high as 60%, for sewers which are never cleaned and overflow all the time.  More astonishing is the 'service tax' which is charged on per month basis; whereas it should always be some percentage of the total consumption charges. In addition, there  is 'pollution surcharge'.  We don't know what DJB is doing to protect our environment?  These seem to be arbitrary decisions.
 
I think, the Joint Front should take this matter up with the CEO of DJB in the interest of the residents of Delhi.

Co operative house building societies and residents

Our madhuvan co operative society was registered in 1961 and know as DELHI OFFICERS CO OP?HOUSE BUILDING SOCIETY LTD.
We paid demands raised from time to time as funds were required to develop roads, parks etc.etc.
I think around 45 lacs was collected and total plots are 225.
In eighties services were handed over to MCD Delhi and members wanted to know price of their share.
There after, land was allotted for community centre and funds were raised to build and furnish CC.
But share price never worked out.
My question is...
Is it statuary requirement to work out share value since assets increase or decrease every year.
Now our member strength is 147 against 225 as some members died but no family member applied for membership.
Is society competent to terminate membership...if so what procedure is to be adopted and what payment is to be paid to kith and kin of members whose membership has been terminated.
Kindly advise in view of position thus explained above

OUR WATER MAINS ARE INSIDE INDIVIDUAL PLOTS MADHUVAN

Pardon my writing frequently about my colony madhuvan.
I am alarmed about encroachments, non burning of high mast lights, about complicity of police staff staff regarding traffice violations......
But believe me these are nothing as compared to which i am going to narrate below.
You are aware that madhuvan was name assigned to delhi officers co op house building society ltd new delhi.
Land was allotted in accordance with agreement executed by madhuvan society..one part and second part..president of india.
I was really at my wits end to see huge water quantity gushing from three points into ornamental park of MADHUVAN...just back of my house.
To day i came to know that ganga water or main water pipes have been laid inside plot of houses from 95 to 99.
Since water pipes are around forty years old, there is leakage here and there.
Due to this heavy leakage...there is low water pressure in surrounding areas.
How water pipes of colony could be laid inside private properties is a matter of concern and needs to be investigated.
Since our president of rwa has resigned and resignation accepted...i am president of Madhuvan RWA.
But i will prefer to be rembered as vice president
