Delhi Water Bodies Go Under, Almost

In a blow to conservation efforts, of the 629 water bodies identified by government agencies, as many as 232 cannot be revived for various reasons.

A reply by Delhi's Urban Development department to a query by Vinod Jain under the Right to Information (RTI) Act provided a break-up of the status of 629 water bodies, along with one that was later added to the list under the Irrigation and Flood Control department (I&FC).

 

A majority of the 175 that cannot be revived come under the Delhi government's I&FC department, apart from 16 others, where legal disputes have prevented any work to be taken up.

Further, it mentions that 37 water bodies under Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and four under Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) cannot be revived for various reasons.

"I needed to check the number of water bodies that have been revived and those that cannot be revived. After all, the authorities are putting in so much of money and time into it," said Jain, from NGO Tapas, who had filed a PIL in the Delhi High Court for the revival of Delhi's water bodies.

Power Firms To Raise Load And Bill You

In a development that could mean a more stable power supply in future, though possibly at a higher cost, the Capital's power companies on Wednesday got the legal go-ahead to enhance the load of those consumers in the habit of using more than what is sanctioned to them.

The Appellate Tribunal on Electricity ruled in favour of the companies, who have been fighting the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission for the right to enhance load on their own.

Typically, each household has a sanctioned load of 1-2 KW. But nearly all of them use 3-4 KW, due to the use of appliances such as geysers and ACs. This causes overload and breakdown of the grids and transformers, leading to power supply disruptions and faster wear and tear of infrastructure.

"This will help us build a more robust network that sees fewer breakdowns due to overloading and the life of our infrastructure will also improve," said Gopal Saxena, CEO of BSES Rajdhani, But for this to happen, Delhiites may have to pay a slightly fatter power bill.

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.

 

Regards

Mrs Ranju Minhas

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
