DERC vs. GNCT of Delhi - CIC - Anil Sood

Dear All

I am pleased to inform you all that Hon'ble High Court  in Writ petition filed by DERC appearing in the trailing mail, has refused to stay the order passed by Hon'ble CIC (Attached) wherein DERC was directed to Suomotto disclose the issues framed, as mandated under section 4(1)(c) of the Right to Information Act, 2005, by it on its web site before asking suggestions from General Public and extend the date of receiving suggestions and thereafter hold public hearing.

However, the DERC instead of complying with the said order rushed to the High Court. The Hon'ble High court after hearing both the parties directed the DERC to appear before CIC on 6th May  2015 and make submissions. The High Court further directed the CIC to pass an order by 8th May, 2015. The Court has listed the matter to be heard on 13th May 2015.

This is the first positive step towards people's participation in meaningful governance. We must appreciate Hon'ble CIC for taking cognizance of such a serious/blatant  non compliance by the Regulator.

Anil Sood

Certification of Repair & Maintenance Expenses (R&M) and Administration and General Expenses (A&G)

Dated 27th April, 2015

Secy, 
DERC,
Malviya nagar,
New Delhi

Subject : Advertisement by DERC says : Engagement of a Chartered Accountant (CAG Empanelled) for Certification of Repair & Maintenance Expenses (R&M) and Administration and General Expenses (A&G) for BRPL and BYPL for FY 2004-05 and FY 2005-06 

Dear Sir, 

We understand very well that a CAG Empanelled Chartered Accountant does not mean that its the certification by CAG. Anyhow, i would like to ask a few questions as below :

1. Why DERC requires such Certification of Repair & Maintenance expenses as well the Administration & General expenses for the years 2004 - 05  &  2005 - 06 and that too in April 2015 i.e. after 10 years ?

2. Does it mean that the Statutory Auditors have not checked above heads ?

3. In such a case how DERC has relied upon the rest of the expense heads and why DERC has not asked for the Certification of Purchases, Sales, Surplus sales, AT&C Losses as well the Distribution losses for all these years ?

4. If the above figures are yet to be certified, does it mean that the True Up is not done till date for various heads of expenses ? 

5. In such a case, how we can rely upon the Statutory books of accounts of BRPL & BYPL & how the DISCOMs can ask for the review of Power Tariff regularly since 2004 - 05 onwards while even the last Audit report clearly states that : Managements responsibility for the financial statements : Management is responsible for the preparation of their financial statement that give a True & Fair view of the Financial position, financial performance and cash flow....

Sir, Awaiting your most valued reply.

Thanks,

East Delhi RWAs Joint Front's suggestions to Delhi Government over Delhi Budget !

Hydrojal Plus– the Alkaline way to improve immune system & body resistance !

It’s a well known fact that 70% of our body constitutes water & therefore we must drink substantial quantities of water, regularly, to stay fit & healthy. But have you ever tested the quality of water that you get from Taps in your home  ? The reality is, that most of us get dirty water from the taps which contains invisible bacteria, parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins that often lead us to various hospitals for immediate medical attention.

As a result, water purifier has become a part of our lifestyle, but we don’t understand that even the RO water contains acidic pH that makes our body more acidic. This acidic water causes acidity, fatigue, constipation, headaches, cancer, arthritis, immune dysfunction, hangovers as well the premature aging. The truth is that the purified water is an active absorber  & the minute it comes in contact with the air, it absorbs carbon dioxide that makes the water acidic.  Even the cooking of food in such water, lowers its nutrient value.

Many of us consume cold drinks as an alternative of water, without even understanding that these beverages are also made from the purified water only. Those with regular intakes of soft drinks spill huge amount of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine that may lead to osteoporosis, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure etc. Isn’t it shocking that in order to replace the water stolen by soft drinks, we must drink at least 12 glasses of water for every glass of soft drink consumed.

The truth is that the ideal water for human consumption should be alkaline, which has the presence of minerals such as calcium & magnesium. Water filtered through a solid charcoal filter is slightly alkaline and Ozonation of this charcoal filtered water is ideal for regular human consumption. Alkaline ion water attracts the acidic ions & carries them out of the body. 

It must be noted that the healthy cells live in an alkaline environment & all kinds of unhealthy cells live in an acid accumulated waste environment. Alkaline water provides the stomach mucosa to excrete the right amount of hydrochloric acid for food digestion. We must note that 1 glass of Alkalized water is equal to 3 glasses of ordinary or bottled water in its hydration capability. Therefore, if we want to be on the safer side & want to be fit & healthy, we must opt for the Alkaline & Anti – oxidant rich water, that can keep us more healthier & fit as its absolutely non acidic in nature.

Hydro - Jal Plus is India’s most advanced, compact, stylish & affordable water ionizer. It is the most efficient and powerful mechanism that converts the regular water into the absolute healthiest ionized alkaline water that is perfectly fit for drinking. You can get a Free Demo of the Hydro jal at your home and can get a free test of your normal drinking water to prove its acidity.  

We must remember that the regular intake of Ionized Alkaline water improves the immune system and body resistance to diseases as no disease can live in an Alkaline body. Therefore, if you want to transform your health with 3 – 4 litres of Alkaline & Anti oxidant rich water every day, just call Hydro Jal Plus, for a Live Demo, NOW !
