Ban on Plastic bags in Delhi

Dear Sirs,

 

It is a very good news to ban plastic bags in the Capital with required strict regulations . I am equally concern how the persons will adjust to the habit of keeping and maintain Re-usable bags for their daily needs such as for buying vegetables etc  from local markets, carrying bags all the time on person to use as  and when required. The availability of re usable bags at a reasonable prices  is a big challenge and government must suggest a way to make available cheap and durable reusable bags at all points of RWA . Only Jute bags  will not serve the purpose as these are not washable and are  bulky and less durable too. Only fabric bags are long lasting and can be folded in small shape to be stored by consumers on their person and take it  out as and when required.

They should provide incentives to certain registered units producing such bags in the NCR.

 

Thanking you,

East Delhi RWAs Joint Front

Dear Vohra ji, 

 

I am of the firm view/opinion that we should confine our activities/jurisdiction to East Delhi where more than 1/3rd of Delhi population is residing beset with countless problems. Let us focus on the core issues and make it a model for others. You are aware that many of the people to other parts of Delhi are coming over here to settle because so many problems over in other parts, particularly parking and water! There are so many RWAs whose activities and problems we have to coordinate and that is why I had suggested forming a 'Confederation' Let's not use the word 'bhagidari' which had been coined by the Delhi Administration. We already have a forum at the governmental level for this 'bhagidari' system which has lost its shine and importance as none of the problems focussed to them have been solved so far and nepotism and favouritism have unfortunately crept in here too!

For favourable consideration. Let's confine ourselves to East Delhi and enlarge the umbrella to other parts later or get similar bodies set up in those parts. Otherwise it would be extremely difficult to coordinate. With the bifurcation of DMCs it would be prudent to have our own identity and take steps to solve all major problems by discussion etc. with the authorities concerned. As you know next year is the election year for Delhi and therefore we have to move very fast to achieve our major tasks! Lets concentrate on the issues and get them solved at the earliest! This is my humble opinion.

With best regards,

BJP to start big demonstration with RWA against electricity bill

BJP has said that the current power bill, which charged at the rate of Rs. 2.90 per unit, are being charged at the rate of Rs. 4.80 and Rs. 6.40 per unit. This has happened because the DERC has fixed slab for power consumption and the power subsidy being given by Delhi Government at the rate of rupee one per unit. Due to this the amount being charged from the people have doubled. Their domestic budget has disturbed due to it.

Not BJP has decided to stage a strong demonstration with RWAs at the offices of all the three power companies of Delhi.This announcement was made by the BJP Delhi Pradesh President Vijender Gupta. He told that the If a bill being served to the common man of 600 units then Rs. 150 also recovered as fixed charges. In addition about 180 rupees is being recovered as electricity duty. Fuel surcharge is also added.

This way the power companies are recovering about 500 rupees extra which is injustice to the power consumers. Shri Gupta has demanded Delhi Government and DERC that they should abolish slab system for the common power bills and Delhi Government should be restore one rupee subsidy as earlier so that the people may not get the power shock.

He further told that 80% people in Delhi there family income of Rs. 10,000 per month. If they will spent Rs 4000 on power consumption then how will main his family.
