MCD IS FLUSHED WITH FUNDS

Sir,

Balu jee is worried because mcd is short of funds and hence progress is at standstill on various projects. MCD is not collecting property tax from more than 60% of properties. So is the status of collection of legitimate money from mobile phone companies as more than 2500 towers are illegal. SURRISINGLY, RESPONSIBLE OFFICERS are not behind bars. IMMENSE LOSS IS BEING CAUSED BY OFFICERS IN LEAGUE WITH POLITICIANS.

Delhi Govt Is Set To Accept DERC Proposal

Richi Verma | TNN 

New Delhi: If you think your power bills are too high, here’s some bad news: Get set to pay even more. Power regulator Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission has paved the way for a hike by sending fresh advice to the Delhi government which states that the current tariff was not ‘‘cost-reflective’’ and power companies were suffering under-recoveries of 30% to 50%.
    This comes less than six months after then-chairman of DERC, Berjinder Singh, had advised the government that discoms were misrepresenting their financial state. In May, the government had intervened to stop a tariff announcement by DERC which is rumoured to have recommended a reduction in power rates. Singh retired in September.
    Within 24 hours of receiving the regulator’s latest advice, the Sheila Dikshit government responded by not just accepting it but saying it validates concerns raised by the government on the discom’s financial conditions. The government had invited the high court’s ire for meddling in tariff fixation policies earlier this year and halting the May tariff announcement.
    The new advice also spells victory for the city’s three power discoms — BSES Rajdhani, BSES Yamuna and NDPL — who have been fighting for higher tariff for a long time.
 

TARIFF: ‘Fall’ & Rise Jan 7, 2010 DERC admits discoms’ petition seeking tariff hike of up to 70%
May 4 12 hrs before DERC is to declare new tariffs, Delhi govt intervenes to stop announcement
May 6 There’s speculation DERC was due to slash tariffs. Audited accounts show healthy profits for all discoms
June 30 DERC sends ‘statutory advice’ to govt saying claims of poor financial state by discoms baseless and full of lies
July 22 Govt rejects advice, terms it chairman Berjinder Singh’s personal opinion
Sept 25 Singh retires Dec 1 HC says state govt can’t direct DERC on tariffs
Dec 20 Two-member DERC panel sends fresh advice, makes case for tariff hike
Dec 21 Govt accepts advice

Do you have Electricity complaint that has not been properly redressed ?

Is there any space left on Delhi roads, to give way to these Emergency Vehicles ?

with thanks : Hindustan Times : link above.

Hope this rule is not misused, as in most of the area's, there is no space left on the Delhi roads, to give way to these Emergency vehicles.  Many a times, we just pray to GOD on listening Sirens of  an Ambulance or a Fire Brigade vehicle. Even the limited & tired DTP staff is strengthless to help these vehicles. DTP must ensure that, this new rule, though necessary, is not misused.

What next ?

Can we now expect a reduction in Property Tax ?
