Power bill to increase for some Delhi users; Atishi blames Centre

The Hindu  

Domestic consum­ers with a monthly usage of over 200 units of electricity will have to pay more as the Delhi government has decided to impose a hike upto 8% in the Power Purchase Ad­ justment Cost, Pow­er Minister Atishi said on Monday. Further, she clarified that for TPDDL Consumers, PPAC will rise by 1.49% but the impact on the final bill will be about 1.2%, for BRPL Consumers PPAC will rise by 6.39% but its impact on the final bill will be 5.3%, and for BYPL Consumers — PPAC will rise by 9.42% but its impact on the final bill will be 7.7% In response, the Bharatiya Janata Party alleged that the “nexus” between the Aam Aadmi Party government and power distribution companies was the cause of the hike. “The Centre’s power generation company NTPC Ltd. is selling electricity to Delhi at a massive 25-50% hike over stipulated DERC rates,” Ms. Atishi said. What has Kejriwal done to increase power generation?” Leader of the Opposition Ramvir Singh Bidhuri said all BJP MLAs will hold a protest outside Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence on Tuesday to demand a withdrawal of the hike as well as seek a special session of the Assembly. Delhi BJP chief Virendra Sachdeva said a delegation of the party leaders will soon meet the DERC chairperson and seek a withdrawal of the “one-member quorum’s decision”.
