Electricity of Delhi is facing a rough patch for
the past few days. Every now and then power cut
brings in lots of problems. The people of the
city face this difficult situation every day.
After the evolution of the new government of the
state, the problem has increased and citizens
find it tough to cope up with the situation. Work
throughout the state is getting delayed and also
companies are facing hurdles with such an
incurable problem.
Arvind To Take Steps To Correct Power Supply Of
The State
Arvind Kejriwal chief minister of Delhi is also
pretty concerned with the difficulty that
occurred. He held Anil Ambani responsible for
great power cut problem. In his recent tweet, he
stated that "Anil Ambani playing politics with
Delhi's electricity? Whose politics is he doing?"
he took next move of asking the power regulator
of the region take away the licenses of the two
electricity distributors if they fail to supply
adequate power to the state.

Soon after his command, the government of Delhi
suspended and cancelled the licenses of the two
power distributing companies BSES Yamuna Power
Ltd and BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd, who supplied
power to south and west region of the state. Both
the companies are under Anil Ambani led Reliance
Infrastructure Ltd (RIL). After such a step, few
meeting with the other power distribution
companies are in the process and it is assumed to
arrive in with a positive result. New power
distribution companies are welcomed by the
government of the state. It is also heard that
the government is happy with the functioning of
the Tata Power Delhi Distribution Limited and
have mentioned them to be a good performer.
This crisis sprung up when BRPL did not pay the
money that was due for the power supply. NTPC
issued a notice to BRPL to pay Rs 270 crore and
renew the letter of credit by February 10. They
even warned them to pay within the given time of
power supply will be snapped in south and west
Delhi.

AAP government acted tough with the excess power
cut problem after they received about 1000
complaints between January 20 and January 31.
After so many complaints Arvind Kejriwal penned
down a letter to Lt. Governor concerning the
current power failure and also he accused the
power regulators inefficiency while performing
their duty. Delhis power secretary, Puneet Goel
said during the event of the licenses being
revoked that suitable officers will be appointed
who will administer the distribution companies
and keep the power to be switched on. Now it is
yet to see that with the cancellation of the
licenses and appointment of the new power
distribution companies, how much light people of
Delhi will get after so many power supply changes
one after the other.
