Unite and fight against massive power tariff hike

I am sure residents of Pragati Apartments are aware that the threat of a massive power tariff hike is looming large. Stakeholders and various consumer activists have been preparing to fight it out in the public hearing scheduled to be held in this month. I am not sure whether PARWA has submitted any objections to DERC.

The massive power hike is going to affect every one of us. The private Discoms are asking for significant hike in tariff for 2011-12 with BSES Yamuna is asking for a 85 % hike, BSES Rajdhani a 67 % hike, and NDPL a 50% hike.

Illegal PARWA EC will not do anything. The residents will have to act independent of PARWA EC. A group should be formed and a plan should be prepared to fight out this unjust hike.
