Power dept stops new connections to 16 colonies that lack infrastructure
The power distribution company on Wednesday said that on July 2, it stopped issuing electricity connections to 16 housing societies and colonies where developers have not built the requisite power infrastructure.
The managing director of the distribution company, Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), PC Meena confirmed the developments in this regard and said that a meeting will be held with developers next week to resolve the issue.
All 16 are developed projects and are occupied by residents, said officials.
“No fresh elections connections to few privately developed colonies are being given because these builders have not created adequate power infrastructure. It is the responsibility of the developers to create distribution infrastructure inside the colonies.
