The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) has demanded a parcel of 500 square yard land in each residential society in the developing sectors — 58 to 115 — to set up electricity substations of 33 kva. The move comes as an attempt to end power crisis in the area permanently. The area, at present, has a total population of 2 lakh.
On Wednesday, officials of the department of town and country planning (TCP) and the DHBVN, electricity distribution agency, held a meeting to discuss the issue. At the meeting, DTCP director K M Pandurang directed senior town planner (STP), Gurugram, Sudhir Chauhan, to hold a meeting with developers and expedite the process of acquiring land.
