मध्यप्रदेश में नए साल में एक किलोवाट विद्युत कनेक्शन वाले उपभोक्ताओं को बड़ी राहत मिली है। बिजली कंपनी ने अगस्त 2020 तक के बिजली बिल की बकाया राशि अब लंबे समय तक के लिए स्थगित कर दी है। 9 लाख उपभाक्ताओं से अधिक उपभोगताओं को इस आदेश का फायदा मिलेगा।

कोविड महामारी की वजह से पिछले साल कई उपभोक्ता नौकरी चले जाने और उद्योग धंधे बंद हो जाने की वजह से आर्थिक नुकसान झेल रहे थे। सरकार ने उन सभी को राहत पहुंचाने के लिए अगस्त 2020 तक और उससे पहले की महीने के बिजली बिल की राशि चुकाने से कुछ समय की राहत का स्थगन आदेश निकाला था। जिसे दो-दो महीने करके बढ़ाया जा रहा था, लेकिन अब एक बार फिर से स्थगन आदेश को बढ़ाया गया है।

बता दें जिन उपभोक्ताओं को यह राहत मिली है वह सभी 1 किलो वाट के कनेक्शन धारी उपभोक्ता हैं। इससे अधिक भार क्षमता वाले उपभोक्ताओं को पहले की तरह ही अपने सभी वर्तमान और पूर्व बिजली बिल जमा करने होंगे। इसके साथ ग्वालियर सिटी सर्किल में मध्य क्षेत्र विद्युत वितरण कंपनी, बिजली बिल की 550 करोड़ रुपए की राशि वसूलती है।

जिसमें से लगभग 300 करोड़ रुपये उन 1 किलोवाट कनेक्शन धारी उपभोक्ताओं के है। उनमें से ग्वालियर और भोपाल रीजन में ऐसे 9 लाख उपभोक्ता हैं, जबकि ग्वालियर शहर में ऐसे उपभोक्ताओं की संख्या एक लाख है। वहीं उर्जा मंत्री का कहना है कि एक किलो वाट कनेक्शन वाले उपभोक्ताओं के अगस्त 2020 और उससे पहले के महीनों के बकाया बिजली के बिल की वसूली को लेकर असमंजस की स्थिति बन रही थी। इसी कारणवश यह वसूली आगामी आदेश तक स्थगित कर दी गई है। सरकार जल्द ही ऐसे उपभोक्ताओं के हित में फैसला लेगी ताकि उन्हें राहत मिल सके।

You vote for Modi but expect me to solve your problems: Kumaraswamy

Chief minister HD Kumaraswamy kicked the hornet’s nest on Wednesday as he lashed out at employees of a thermal power plant. They were protesting in front of his cavalcade in Raichur district. He asked them why they approached him with their problems when they voted for the Bharatiya Janata Party.

Kumaraswamy was on his way to Karegudda village in Manvi Taluk of Raichur district, on the second leg of his village visit programme, when employees of the Yermarus Thermal Power Station protested in front of the bus in which he was travelling and shouted slogans against him.

An irate Kumaraswamy lashed out at the workers asking them why they had approached him for work when they voted for the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “I will ask the police to conduct a lathi charge. You vote for Modi but expect me to solve your problems,” he said.

Criticising the chief minister, BJP state general secretary CT Ravi told reporters here that these were very petty comments from the chief minister that weren’t befitting the office he held.

There is a difference between what one feels and what one should express in public. To understand the difference, one needs maturity and Kumaraswamy doesn’t seem to have it. Not only Kumaraswamy, Menka Gandhi also became infamous for such type of comments. It’s better to think twice before speaking in public. For politicians, they should think thrice or more than that.
