The persisting deadlock between Punjab State Power Corporation Limited officials and colony developers has shrouded hundreds of individual plot owners in darkness with the power corporation refusing to provide connections without a no-objection certificate, regardless of whether a colony has been regularised or not.
With the PSPCL seeking submission of bank guarantees and installation of electric infrastructure in the colony for providing the NOC, developers are contending that they have applied for regularisation under the policies floated by state government in 2013 and 2018, and they need not to apply for an NOC from the PSPCL, separately.
