Gurgaon: Orders While commission (HERC) Haryana (HERC) which allows new power connections in 16 private colonies of the city may come as a desiring that is very much needed for many residents, but there are catches – those who are willing to pay development costs voluntarily as worn by disco must Sign a colony business as imposed by a discom.
“It’s not voluntary if the discom tells us to pay a development fee for new connections.
What’s more terrible is that they also ask us to sign an attempt to protect yourself from checking any law,” said Manchanda Dilip, who recently paid the hospital 3 lakh to get a new connection for his Vihar property.
“They really abuse them monopoly and encourage consumers to the wall,” Manchanda said, adding that there was no notification of written requests from the diskomy.
“It is verbal communication from a discom, asking me to pay the amount to get a temporary connection for construction purposes.” Some residents slammed DHBVN for failing to restore their contributions from the developer and passed the burden for them.
“This is a problem between the developer and Discom power, so why do we pay the price for that? There isn’t even clarity about how they calculate the burden,” said Saurabh Kalra, a resident of Palam Vihar.
Rwas accused the government to destroy consumers.
“It’s like extortion, this is not expected from the government department,” said Chaitali Mandhotra, a member of Ardee City Rwa.
However, Meena PC, Dhbvn executive director, said that he did not know the business format.
“If needed, the amendment will be done.” “HERC has allowed a discode to collect development costs from consumers who are looking for new connections or increased loads and this is completely voluntary.
Every time we restore the same thing from the developer, we will continue the benefits for consumers.
We do everything in a transparent way.”
