B S Vohra with RED FM RJ RAUNAC, KAVAY & ROHAN

Heavy rains have not yet lashed in Delhi & therefore PWD, DJB & MCD still have time to clean all the drains. They must take this in a positive manner and must take immediate steps to clean these drains so that Delhi is free from water logging. And no Blame Game please. Public is not that fool any more.

Step motherly treatment with authorised group housing societies ?

It is true that the Administration always gives step-motherly treatment to recognized and registered Cooperative Housing Societies who always follow meticulously all the provisions in the Cooperative Society's Act & Rules and are always answerable to them in every respect. It is a pity that they could not so far decide about the levy of property tax, understood that this will be decided by the middle of August and the last date may also be extended to September, what a loss of revenue to the EDMC, not undertaken any fogging in the colonies, nor cleaned the storm water drains, parks are not attended to particularly this is the season for rearing and planting saplings etc. so far, despite the fact that they are all ought to be programmed well in advance and by now execution completed in every respect! What else you could expect from the authorities concerned except to attending to unauthorised colonies, which are their vote banks, totally neglecting the law abiding people living in the authorised and recognized housing colonies! We can only seek and pray to the Divine's intervention to resolve all the problems being faced by us!!

With regards,
TK Balu/Anand Vihar

नई दिल्ली
दिल्ली सरकार ने 895 कॉलोनियों को नियमित करने का प्रस्ताव तैयार किया था, उनमें से साउथ दिल्ली में स्थित 484 कॉलोनियों का प्रोफाइल तैयार किया गया है, ताकि कॉलोनियों को भविष्य में कभी नियमित होने पर लोगों को बुनियादी सुविधाएं तुरंत उपलब्ध हो सके। कॉलोनियों की प्रोफाइल रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक दिल्ली में कुल 1797 अवैध कॉलोनियां हैं, जिनमें से 1008 कॉलोनियां अकेले साउथ एमसीडी एरिया में हैं।

साउथ एमसीडी ने अवैध कॉलोनियों की जो प्रोफाइल रिपोर्ट तैयार की है, उसके मुताबिक साल 2008 तक दिल्ली में 1639 कॉलोनियां अवैध थीं। 2008 में इनकी सूची तैयार करने के बाद से अब तक 158 नई अवैध कॉलोनियां सामने आई हैं। नई अवैध कॉलोनियों को मिलाकर दिल्ली में अब अवैध कॉलोनियों की कुल संख्या 1797 हो गई है। इसमें अवैध कॉलोनियों की जो पुरानी लिस्ट थी, उसमें साउथ एमसीडी एरिया में 980 कॉलोनियां थीं। नई अवैध कॉलोनियों में साउथ एमसीडी एरिया की 28 कॉलोनियां हैं।

अफसरों का कहना है कि दिल्ली सरकार ने सितंबर 2012 में अवैध कॉलोनियों को नियमित करने का जो प्रस्ताव बनाया था, उनमें से 484 कॉलोनियां साउथ एमसीडी एरिया में हैं। इनमें से 220 कॉलोनियां निजी जमीन और 264 कॉलोनियां सरकारी जमीन पर स्थित हैं। इस रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक 1977 से 1994 के बीच दिल्ली सरकार ने कुल 567 कॉलोनियों को नियमित किया, जिनमें से 202 कॉलोनियां साउथ एमसीडी एरिया की थीं। अफसरों का कहना है कि दिल्ली सरकार ने जिन अवैध कॉलोनियों को नियमित करने का प्रस्ताव बनाया है, उन कॉलोनियों का प्रोफाइल पहले से तैयार कर रखा जा रहा है ताकि भविष्य में जब कभी इन कॉलोनियों को नियमित किया जाता है, तो यहां रहने वाले लोगों को बुनियादी सुविधाएं उपलब्ध कराने का खाका तैयार करने में अधिक समय न लगे।

RWAs up in arms over plan to hike power tariff

DERC gets an earful in its annual public meeting


The Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) on Wednesday held a public hearing on power tariff increase petitions filed by state distribution companies. The proposal for a hike was vehemently opposed by Residents’ Welfare Associations (RWAs) and political parties.
There has been no rise in power tariffs in Delhi in the last two years mainly because keeping the power rates low was a key agenda of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, which is providing ₹1,720 crore in power subsidy for the current financial year.
July 2014 was the last time that tariff was revised and the rates were increased by 5%. Since then, consumers pay ₹4 per unit for consumption of power up to 200 units, ₹5.80-₹5.90 per unit for 200-400 units and ₹7.30 per unit for 400 units or higher.
The meeting on Wednesday started at 9 a.m. and was attended by over 50 public representatives. The ‘Draft Business Plan Regulations, 2017, and tariff petitions’ was presented, which marks an important step in the tariff revision process, which started last month.
The final call on fare revision will be taken after the DERC goes through the suggestions of the public.
President of the east Delhi RWA,  B. S. Vohra said that instead of improving services, the discoms were in a rush to increase tariffs by displaying heavy losses in their books.
“Data shows that the growth rate of the consumers of the three discoms is around 5% to 6% per annum. Even if the peak demand is up by just 2%, there are outages across Delhi. Is this the business plan they have for the consumers?” he said.

‘It is a joke’

Saurabh Gandhi, general secretary of the United Residents of Delhi — a collective of RWAs — said that they were disappointed by the outcome of the public hearing due to the sheer apathy of the DERC towards the consumers.
“They strip people of the last penny but do not improve services. The meeting has become a joke,” he said.
Terming it a farce, the Delhi unit of the BJP boycotted the meeting while alleging irregularities by the AAP government. “Today’s hearing is a farce. It’s a big deception. There is concrete evidence of connivance of the Arvind Kejriwal government in the three power discoms of Delhi,” Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari said in a statement.

RWA's Condemn the Death of BSES Er. Abhimanyu Singh

It's really very sad that a BSES employee, Er Abhimanyu Singh died in an accident while saving himself from a chasing mob, in an Anti Power Theft drive, as per the news report. Four others were also injured in the accident and admitted in the hospital.

Though police version says that no one was being chased and it was a case of rash driving, DERC must come forward to investigate the entire issue and those from the power theft areas must be dealt strictly.

RWAs will prey for the departed soul with a request to DERC for a two minute MOUN, before the Public hearing tomorrow.

B S Vohra
President,
East Delhi RWAs Joint Front - Federation

RWA's Condemn the Death (MURDER) of Mr. Abhimanyu Singh by POWER THIEVES

RWA's Condemn the Death (MURDER) of Mr. Abhimanyu Singh by POWER THIEVES ...... wishing speedy recovery to others injured in performing their duty.

To
The Secretary,
DERC.

Dear Sir,

This is a sad day for Delhi, that Power Thieves are so emboldened to attack BSES Staff deputed to check Power Theft, that too under Police Protection.

WE REQUEST YOU TO PLEASE OBSERVE TWO MINUTES SILENCE BEFORE THE START OF PUBLIC HEARING to be held on 19th July 2017, to show solidarity with the bereaved family.

RWA's have for long protested the theft of Power By Vote Banks, as it affects the Tariff Structure of Honest Citizens. If the Government of the Day is unable to control such thieves then, one is tempted to suggest Snapping of Power to that area, but then that will impact the few honest Consumers in that Area.

We suggest the amount of Stolen Power should be deducted from the LAD Fund of the Theft Prone area's MP, MLA and Councillor so that Honest Citizens do not feel cheated. After all these are Vote Banks that are cultivated through such unfair means, how else do they get so emboldened?????

DERC should instruct the Centre to Redeploy CISF to protect BSES Staff in helping curb this menace.

Regards,

Rajiv Kakria
Member, GK-I, RWA

PS: Request all RWA's to send their condolence to the beareaved family through DERC.
