Theft of Electricity in DDA Flats in Dwarka by a Doctor.

[R. Dua]

This for information of residents of DDA Flats in Dwarka. A Doctor , Dr DharamVeer Sharma residing and running a Maternity Clinic in Flat No225 Sec9, Pkt1 DDA Flats Dwarka, was indulging in theft of Electricity from a fellow residents main meter. Local BSES office in Dabri was informed of same. But to the fellow residents consternation the BSES staff was very supportive of the Doctor, in fact the Doctor was immediately informed of the complaint by a Dabri BSES staff who surprisingly had the Doctors mobile number!!  When the matter was followed up at higher level in BSES, by the aggrieved party , after being made to run around from one BSES office to another, was directed to Grievance Cell of Delhi Govt in Minto Rd. After a couple of hearings the Judge Shri RC.Chopra said BSES is not concerned with elec/power theft occurring among its consumers. BSES only is concerned if theft is from BSES main wires, before it is connected to a consumers meter. The matter can be referred to the local Police.This verdict has come 8 months after the matter was reported to BSES office and followed up to the Enforcement Director level but to no avail.. Obviously , evidence of elec/power theft would be hardly there after 8 months. Surprisingly the local Police also has no way to ascertain the elec/power theft on its own. When a matter of similar nature is reported to the Police , they approach BSES for same. Nice MERRY GO ROUND. In the end the grieved party has wasted lot of time and money with no result in sight. The only light at the end of the tunnel is support from local residents of the sector. Meanwhile another Doctor/ShopOwner would be committing Elec/power theft on someother unsuspecting resident in a DDA Flat. Can BSES be made responsible for its corrupt staff/management?

Sir, theft is from individual metred junction of a neighbour, by  the Doctor. The Doctor is in Flat225 Grd floor and the Main meter Box is on his outside wall of his flat. He has broken his wall frm inside his flat, approached the main Elec supply wires and installed a connection frm the wire of the First Floor flat which is exposed as the wall has main wires of all the upstair residents flats. After installing the connection the wall is repaired and painted. So the theft is from the individuals meter, as in this case this case the first floor resident Flat no226. BSES says that as the theft in the wire is after the main meter of the neighbour therefore it is a matter between the consumers and BSES has no role to play in this. The Police has no means to ascertain the theft as said by ACPShaliniSingh, which is right. so in these matters Police does not register a complaint till BSES says so. BSES has already stated it inability to do anything, so the Doctor is free to commit another theft , on someother unsuspecting resident. Are these Doctors or Daylight robbers. They know the loop wholes in the system so well, as in this case.

How BSES is not responsible for Power Theft ??

The theft is from public Distribution ? or is from any individual metered junction ?

This main meter installed by DDA RWA ? If so why RWA is not making complaint ?

Take Pictures of the Theft Wires and Submit to authorities and also post.

Thanks,

Rejimon

Dear Sir, I think the Forum should not intervene in such individual matters.  V r not the rep. of Distcom and all residents r equal for us.  If Mr. Dua wants, he can bring this matter to the knowledge of the authorities in his personal capacity.  Forum should focus of devp of the area rather than mingling in such matters.   However, it is my personal opinion based on experience but I shall be bound with the collective decision of the Forum.

I agree this Forum is not the rep of Discom. In my opinion Members may give appropriate suggestions/comments in the matter so that matter can be put up appropriately with concerned authorities. We have to encourage residents who really wants to do some for the welfare of other residents also.

Shri MKGupta ji, this issue of power theft was posted to bring awareness regarding these matters ,which are now occuring in areas like Dwarka ,DDA Flats. The matter gives exact details to the forum members , so they are beware of such thefts personally, and also in the larger interest of residents of Dwarka follow up the matter with BSES so that we can prevent such blatant misuse of authority by BSES Rajdhani. Thankyou.

[R. Dua]

Sir, This matter brings to attention the irregularities /corruption in BSES. I hope u agree that we all represent , other residents also who do not have acsess to the Forum. The matter has already been brought to the notice of the concerened authority but to no avail. This is has happened to an individual today, can to so to another. This is not a plea for an individuals help, but a collective action by the Forum so that we can avoid such mishappenings. Thanks.

Dear All

I guess we should discuss every menace that is causing problem in
Dwarka even if its caused by a stupid act of individuals as there is
very high possibiltiy is is not Einstein and that problem might be at
very large scale and lots of people might not just be aware of the
conniving of Electricty people and the clinics/commericial/residential
high power users..

Even this we have seen in our society where few members were using 2
ACs and still their total bill was less than 100Rs a month. When it
brought to that member notice his reply was u can fix the problem i
don't know why its like this..

Thus we all need to be aware of whats happening around us and if there
is one Dr who is stealing there is a high possibility other clinics
etc might also be indulging in same acts.. Above all, having such
clinics in DDA flats also needs to be stopped..

Its good that a corrupt person is exposed by Dua Sir for the benefit
of everyone..

regards
Krishna

The matter should be taken to higher authorities by the forum. BSES
should allow the residents to lock their meters after it getting it
connected from the transmission line. As a matter of fact entire
system is open for theft unless you keep your meter locked in a iron
box.

She is Mrs. R. Dua. We appreciate the action initiated by Mrs. Dua.

[R. Dua]

Request the Forum to ask BSES/DDA to make electricity meters / boxes tamper free for DDA Flat residents . Periodic checking of same by outside agency, the cost of same to be borne by BSES.

[R. Dua]

It is thanks to the Dwarka residents Forum, that we can discuss these matters and convey info. Good to know that rightminded people working for better living space.

[R. Dua]

Thankyou Mr Krishna for understanding the wide spread Elec theft , individual to individual ,which exists in Delhi. It is embarrassing to talk abt the same as it concerns our nextdoor neighbours  be it Doctors or Shop owners, and we just want to hush up the issue. In this whole issue the culprit goes free and BSES staff makes extra buck. As per the BSES staff this kind of Electricity theft is permitted to Comm Establishments to light their Boards, or a light bulb!!. Moreover not much action can be taken against the wrongdoer as the theft is not from BSES main line. The Doctors /Shopowners are aware of this lacunae.

[nishantb]

this matter that has been bought to the notice of the forum i belive
is a very serious and important issue...as each one of us is prone to
such a thing as each one of us has a electricity connection..just
imagine some day you get a bill of Rs 10,000 and you find that you'r
neighbour is using electricity from your connection and you are
getting billed for the same...in my view it really is a serious
issue..as Mr Dua has made us all aware that in case of such a thing
there are no rules and regulations ...and even the electricity DISCOM
is not there to help a honest bill paying citizen...thank you Mr Dua
for making us all aware..
