Power shortage due to mismanagement
The recent 17.5 per cent hike in power tariff for the domestic sector by the Punjab State Electricity Board has affected the common man. Besides this, the hike that has been implemented from the back date is cited as unjustified by people. The summer months have already been harsh on residents due to the power cuts. And even after suffering long hours of cuts they would have to pay power bill arrears from April onwards. This is what a cross section of people has to say on the issue. The Punjab government’s decision to hike power tariff retrospectively is the height of cruelty. It certainly is a tax for non-performance. Crafty politicians don’t hesitate to squeeze whatever is left in pockets of starving workers. Millions of people rarely get two square meals due to long power cuts and consequent lay-offs whereas the politicians are busy in plundering national wealth to feed their insatiable lust for money. The power shortage in Punjab is the result of open loot, mismanagement and non-performance. Kundi connections and other means of mass pilferage are allowed by authorities only to camouflage the real culprits. Funds are being plundered in the garb of providing free power to farmers. Clandestine increase of 17.5 per cent since April has been made purposely to grant a pittance and claim generosity later on to assuage rising tempers. This point bears testimony, as the move has been held back for exploring knotty but sure options. Why the state government is not tapping solar, wind and biogas energy to end the crisis is a million dollar question. The government has not even tried to popularise the use of solar cookers. I think people should compel authorities to disband the PSEB immediately and restrict ever-increasing number of looters at least. DN Sharma Stop power thefts
Electricity being scarce, there is absolutely no sense in giving free electricity to the farm sector; still worse is government’s decision to force domestic consumers pay for the benefits given to the others. It should remember that no benefit could last long unless costs are recovered. Moreover the problem of electricity theft, that is responsible for making the board bankrupt, is being ignored. Instead of raising the tariff it should have cracked down on defaulters. The current hike would unduly burden the honest consumer and the industrial sector. The board should stop playing puppet in the hands of power-hungry politicians, streamline its working and distribution system to come out of losses rather than taking such anti-people decision. Satvir Singh,
Katani Kalan
Govt must share burden
The Punjab State Electricity Board can’t justify increase in the tariff rate and that too from the back date. At the one hand the government is not able to provide the basic facilities, including electricity and on the other increase in power tariff, for whatever they are providing, is not at all welcomed news for common man. They are already facing the recession with rates of almost all-basic things continuously getting out of their reach. The government has to take some burden of common man on its own shoulders. But they are doing just opposite by further increasing it. Hike in electricity bills will definitely take a huge toll on common man’s pocket. The tariff rate should be judged on the basis of the monthly income of the families. Now is the time that the government should implement some new rules. Amarjit Singh
Bail out the board
Too many power cuts were and are the result of the bankrupt Punjab State Electricity Board. There is a need of funds to keep it working. We should not worry about what we are not getting rather we should enjoy what ever is available. We should cooperate the board by ignoring difficult times of power cuts and also by voluntarily paying more then what are being billed. Since this is not a private sector and is run entirely by the government. it is our duty to help it out in the times of crises. As we expect the government should help common man in crisis, the same way a collective effort of common man can definitely bail out the sinking board. All funds collected by social organisations be it a NG O or the clubs and all surplus funds of the religious institutions be donated to the board as it is more needy then the gods. Moreover, the charity boxes should be provided all over to collect donations by the board. Hike in tariff by 17.5 per cent is not sufficient to sustain the losses. And we should be conscious enough to realise that this is only due to our misdeeds in past be it in the form of thefts, misuse or kundi connections that is responsible for such a situation. This will also ease pressure on the government to not privatise this sector and provide free electricity to farmers, and the desired persons at its will. Do donate to enjoy power without cuts next summer. RR Dhanda
Accept tariff hike
The citizens keeping in view the helplessness of the government must accept the recent hike in power tariff. It is because the board is incurring huge losses on the account of the following reasons. Firstly, power consumption needs have largely multiplied over these years with electrical appliances and AC’s turning out to become basic goods from being luxuries. The state cannot meet this growing demand even after exhausting its entire potential (hydro) and thus has to import It from other states (given the high cost of setting up new thermal plants) at a much higher rate than that provided to domestic consumers. Secondly, a huge amount of subsidy and free electricity is given to farmers considering the fact that prosperity of farmers’ results in the prosperity of the nation. Thirdly, an alarming rate of electricity thefts has been recorded on the part of consumers, which is an indicator irresponsible and corrupt citizen. It is required on the part of citizens to cooperate with government by sacrificing some amount of their individual benefit for social good, which will ultimately result in betterment of each one.
