The power ministry has written to the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL) to initiate an inquiry against the incumbent member of the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) for “proved misbehaviour” under the provisions of the Electricity Act, 2003.
The ministry said the DERC has allowed an accumulation of regulatory assets to ₹8,955 crore and has not provided any plans to liquidate it, which is against the provisions of the Act.
