A DAD’S SPEECH AT HIS DAUGHTER’S WEDDING

I thought I would start my speech by addressing you as the “new” family of my daughter. But I think it would be inappropriate because now that she is married, you are “the family” for her. Believe me; I don’t have a problem with that. but just a request - please keep her happy!

I am more than sure that you will keep her very happy. She will perhaps be happier than what she used to be here. But like all fathers, I obsess over my daughter’s happiness which is making me say this over and over again- please keep her happy!

She never was and will never be a burden for me. She is in fact the reason why I breathe and smile. I am getting her married because this is what the law of nature demands. I am helpless in the face of our culture and therefore sending her to your home. She was the happiness of my home and will now light up your home. I am giving my world to you. Please make sure it remains beautiful. I am giving away my princess to you. Please make sure she stays as a queen. I have raised her with my sweat and blood and now she is wonderfully perfect. For all the care, love, beauty and warmth my daughter will bring into your lives, I just want her happiness in return—please keep her happy!

She is very fragile.handle her with love. If at times she feels low, be with her. She just needs a little bit of your attention. If at times she feels sick, show her some care. It’s the medicine that works best for her; empathize with her. She is still learning. Do understand her—please keep her happy!

I don’t mind if I don’t get to see her for months. I don’t mind if I am not able to talk to her on a daily basis. I would be more than happy if she doesn't remember me much. But, my only motive in life has been my daughter’s happiness -please keep her happy.

Dear son-in-law, these words may not mean much to you now but if you are LUCKY enough to father a daughter someday, you will appreciate them better when you will find every beat of your heart shouting – “PLEASE KEEP HER HAPPY”!

HC Declines to Entertain PIL Against Power Tariff Hike

The Delhi High Court today refused to further entertain a PIL challenging the decision of electricity regulator DERC to allow three discoms to raise power tariff under the head of Power Purchase Cost Adjustment Charges (PPAC) costs.

"Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) is the right fora. You raise the plea there," a bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice Pradeep Nandrajog said while disposing of the PIL on the issue.

Earlier, the bench had asked DERC to file its response as to whether it has complied with its own formula and procedures in permitting the discoms to raise power tariff under the head of PPAC costs.

DERC had on 31 July, 2013, passed an order permitting Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group firms, BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd, BSES Yamuna Power Ltd, and Tata Power Delhi Distribution Ltd to increase their PPAC charges by 6, 8 and 7 per cents respectively.

The court was hearing the PIL filed by Madhuresh Lakhaiyar who has alleged DERC, acting in collusion with the discoms, had permitted them to increase Power Purchase Cost Adjustment Charges (PPAC) costs.

There was a nexus between DERC and discoms as even though PPAC is a component of the tariff, no public hearing took place, which was in violation of a provison of the Electricity Act, 2003, the plea said.

Regulator asks govt to ‘fix’ Kejriwal’s SMS helpline on power cuts

The SMS helpline — that was launched in January by the then chief minister Arvind Kejriwal to address complaints on loadshedding in Delhi — seems to be heading nowhere. The Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) has asked the Delhi government to change the present mechanism by which complaints on power cuts received through SMS are being sent to the power regulator.

The helpline registers complaints of unscheduled power cuts through SMS, which are directly forwarded to the DERC for action if there is fault on the part of discoms.

The Power department has received 1,406 complaints through this helpline and found 1,043 valid. There are 498 SMSes against BRPL, 367 against BYPL and 178 against TPDDL till April and all these have been forwarded to the DERC to decide whether these power cuts were because of maintenance of lines or some other local problem and, if not, whether these were unscheduled cuts.

L-G braces for summer, takes measures to regulate water and electricity

With peak summer approaching, Delhi’s Lieutanant Governor on Wednesday stressed upon the need for formulating steps for regulating supply of water and directed the Power department to set up a 24×7 control room and publicise the numbers of those responsible for specific areas for quick redressal of public grievances.

“The most critical issues for summer are adequate supply of water, uninterrupted supply of power, and municipal functions being robust. There must be proper delivery of these three services to the people of Delhi, especially in the summer. All Secretaries must take it upon themselves to ensure that there is delivery on these fronts and there should be fixing of responsibility for non-delivery of services,” Lt governor Najeeb Jung said during a meeting at Secretariat on Wednesday.

This is the first time since 2001 that a Lt Governor held a meeting at the Secretariat. He directed the Jal Board, the Power Department and the Municipalities to gear up for the summer and leave no stone unturned to ensure proper delivery of services.

“The control rooms set up by these departments during the summer months must be manned 24×7. The response time to queries must be prompt and information must be disseminated properly and shared widely with the public so that they are aware of ground situation,” said Jung.

The Lt Governor was informed by Secretary (Power) that the department is developing a mechanism to redress the complaints from the public which go unheeded by DISCOMs. The Secretary (Power) requested police assistance/CISF of about 100 people to power department for curbing theft and for conducting raids and checks. He also informed that regular meetings are being conducted with DISCOMs for providing uninterrupted power supply to the people.
