After Power Shock - Why Delhi Govt. Silent ?

After Power Shock - Why Delhi Govt. Silent ?
15 kilometer Bijali Morcha against inflated electricity bills
Holds Congress Delhi Govt. Guilty : Jolly

New Delhi, 12th Sep 2012 : Delhi BJP Spokesman Mr. Vijay Jolly today led a “Bijali Morcha” against inflated power bills in South Delhi Parliamentary Constituency. Hundreds of protestors marched on foot, denouncing unholy nexus between Sheila led Delhi Govt. and Power Discoms. They demanded reduction in inflated power bills. The protestors marched more than 15 kilometers from Sangam Vihar Deoli Bandh Road to Delhi Electricity Regularity Commission (DERC) Office located in Malviya Nagar. Deoli BJP SC/ST local leader Srilal Pradhan coordinated the Bijali Morcha.

BJP Spokesman Mr. Jolly stated that it is unfortunate that Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit has repeatedly justified the inflated power bills by stating that the income of the Delhi citizens has also gone up side by side. The issue of inflated bills was discussed at length in the cabinet meeting held on Monday, 3 Sep 2012. Despite Diskhit’s statement that she had asked power dept. for immediate redressal of complaints regarding inflated bills, nothing has emerged on the ground zero level alleged BJP leader Mr. Jolly at the Bijali Morcha.
A BJP delegation led by Mr. Jolly met DERC Chairman Mr. P.D. Sudhakar and Member Sec. Jayshree Raghuraman, Director (Engg.) Anjuli Chandra, Members Shyam Wadhera & J.P. Singh and presented them power bills for the month of July & September 2012 and the inflated bill amounts raised by Discoms. It was pointed out that the domestic consumers were the worst sufferers. The increased power tariff allowed by DERC on 27/06/2012 has given a free run to the private power Discoms and especially Reliance Power Company. The T&D losses have come down by 35%. This has resulted in a additional profit of Rs. 3500 crore to the power discoms. But no relief has been passed on to the consumers. CAG should audit the Discom accounts. It is strange that after inflicting power shock to Delhi citizens – Why Delhi Congress Govt. is silent ?



Senior BJP Leaders like Ms. Arti Mehra, Senior MCD Councilor Sarita Chaudhary, BJP Treasurer Anil Goel, Ex. Mehrauli District President Azad Singh, Ex. MCD Councilor Mool Chand Sharma, BJP South District Vice President Satpal Singhal & Kamlesh Yadav. BJP Mandal Presidents Ram Niwas Tomar, Sanjay Kashyap, Raj Kumar Chotala, Doli Jeenwal, Meenu Bisht, Heera Majoka & Meethapur Village Pradhan Dinesh Kumar participated along with hundreds of South Delhi citizens with BJP flags in this Bijali Morcha.
