The residents of Delhi were the latest to join the bandwagon. The residents came forward to protest against the hike and also the meeting held a meeting in Churiwala near Jama Masjid on Sunday. A day after RWA gathered in Jantar Mantar to protest against the power electricity tariff hike the residents demanded a complete roll back information over this issue.
Salman Akhtar the president of Matia Mahal, RWA reported saying that the power companies have controlled power theft in Delhi city even though the rates are not found to be pricing down. Increase in power theft and line losses have found to be the main result with the constant increase in price. Syed Mujibur Rahman the President of Aman committee in Jama Masjid reported saying that increase in the electricity rates by DERC never proving to be consumer friendly instead has added to the woe of public as they have been fed up with the hike in prices of gas and petroleum. The government should immediately withdraw the increase to save the general public in increasing chaos.
