Power
cuts leave DLF residents sleepless
Gurgaon, July 19
The power situation in DLF City here has been taking a turn for the
worse with each passing day with long hours of cuts and shutdowns as a
result of mismanagement of DLF Universal Ltd, allege residents.
Instead of making attempts to improve the situation, the DLF
authorities lodged an FIR against representatives of the DLF Qutab
Enclave Residents’ Welfare Association and certain residents when
they protested against the irregularities committed by the private
developer, said the general secretary of the association, Mr T. K.
Satheesan.

Meeting
with CM fails to enthuse entrepreneurs
Faridabad, July 19

from the business and industry sector, entrepreneurs do not seem to be
very optimistic about any immediate solution to their problems. They
believe that unless the issues are taken up seriously and a timeframe
fixed for each of the projects the industrial scenario may not change
for the better.
