Electricity Meter Rules: Government’s new order regarding Smart Electricity Meter, meters will not be installed in these areas

 

Smart Bijli Meter Opposition to the installation of smart meters continues in Uttarakhand. Leader of Opposition Yashpal Arya said that allegations are being made across the state that the government is forcibly imposing these meters on the common people. At the same time, the government says that this will stop electricity theft and the billing problem will end. The work of installing smart meters is being done under a nationwide scheme.

Smart Bijli Meter: Smart meters will not be installed in the hilly areas and rural areas of the state where there is no internet connection. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Premchand Agarwal clarified in the House that the work of installing smart meters is being done under a nationwide scheme. This will reveal the consumption of electricity in real time. The person who uses electricity will have to pay the bill only for the amount. He said that these meters are not being installed on prepaid mode but on postpaid mode.

Annoyed with this answer of the government, the opposition walked out of the House. Earlier in the morning, before the proceedings of the House began, Congress MLAs also staged a dharna in front of the entrance gate. As soon as the proceedings of the session started on Wednesday, the Congress demanded a discussion on smart meters in the House under Rule 310, on which the Speaker of the Assembly arranged to hear it on the acceptance of Rule 58.

While discussing this, Leader of Opposition Yashpal Arya said that there are allegations all over the state that the government is forcibly imposing these meters on the common people. Digital meters were installed only two years ago. A lot of corruption came to light in these. Now the meters are being changed again. He said that the government has handed over the task of installing pre-paid meters to Adani Group.

He said that protests and sieges are being held against it all over the state. After installing smart meters, the companies will put the desired pressure on the public. He said that if it is not recharged, the electricity will be cut automatically. Where there is no network, how will people use it. Where smart meters have been installed earlier, there are many flaws in them. Congress strongly opposes this.

MLA Tilakraj Behad said that the government has given the contract to install these meters at a cost of Rs 2027 crore to different companies in Garhwal and Kumaon. In Garhwal, this contract has been given to Genesis Company, which has been raided by ED and two of its officers are in jail. Deputy Leader of Opposition Bhuvan Kapri said that the bill for this meter will come in 28 days, that is, the common man will have to pay the bill for 13 months instead of 12 months.

Mamta Rakesh, Bhuvan Chand Kapri, Adesh Chauhan, Gopal Singh Rana, Pritam Singh, Sumit Hridayesh, Vikram Negi, Manoj Tiwari, Ravi Bahadur, Mamta Rakesh and Virendra Jati also expressed their views from the Congress side. Responding to this, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prem Chand Agarwal said that installation of meters will stop theft. Billing problems will end with its online reading. The work of company selection has been done with complete transparency. The government is working on this thoughtfully.
