Mahadiscom / Mseb / Msedcl — After China and Pakistan MSEDCL becomes enemy #3

It is rightly said that MSEDCL has become enemy#3 after China and Pakistan. Msedcl has been resorting to load shedding and irregular power cuts in Khanda Colony Sector 9. The residents have been suffering despite paying all their bills on time and the situation does not seem to improve.
Msedcl imposed a power cut on 31st July 2021 from 6 am and power has not yet been restored. On 30th July 2021, power cut was imposed from 10.30 am to 11.30 am, 29th July 2021 from 2 pm to 6.15 pm, on 27th July 2021 from 8.45 am to 2 pm Due to these power cuts, residents are a harassed lot. These power cuts make a person fell groggy and incapacitate them temporarily. Work from home due to the covid pandemic goes for a toss and residents suffer pay cuts. Online classes conducted by the school and coaching classes go for a toss and the students cannot cope up with their studies.
MSEDCL only wants an excuse to hide its inefficiencies. MSEDCL & Town planning authorities are very corrupt and sanction new projects in Navi Mumbai without increasing power generation to supply 24x7 power to existing residents as well as prospective residents in upcoming projects. As a result of such power cuts, the following are the problems faced by the residents:-
1. Costly vegetables, fruits, milk, batter and other perishables etc stored in the refrigerator get spoiled leading to tremendous losses.
2. The mobile phones conk off and the Internet connection gets disrupted and communication is cut off leading to severe inconvenience.Work from home is not possible in such a scenario.
3. Digitization goes for a toss as payments cannot be made online or from the mobile.
4. Students are not able to study from lectures on online school lectures and youtube videos due to power cuts.
MSEDCL has been torturing the residents over the last 31 years despite them paying all their bills regularly and that too well before the due date. Load shedding is not the solution and electricity generation is the need of the hour. Residents of Navi Mumbai are those who have shifted from Mumbai as encouraged by the Central and State Government where there were no power cuts because it was insulated by three power companies - Tata, BEST, BSES. However even today after more than a quarter of a century, MSEDCL cannot supply 24x7x365 days power supply. The moot point is that if Navi Mumbai (Vashi to Panvel/Airoli) has to become a Smart City & the future Airport node, it cannot afford to have any power cuts and it should have 24 X 7 power supply round the clock. It is high time the Maharashtra Government understands the need for changing the Power Distributor in Navi Mumbai from MSEDCL to another player like Reliance or TATA Power. TATA Power will supply cheaper power and also insulate Navi Mumbai by supplying 24 X 7 power for Navi Mumbai from Vashi to Panvel/Airoli.
More than 90% of the residents who have shifted to Navi mumbai from Mumbai are ruing their decision now due to the wretched brute and misanthrope MSEDCL. Those Msedcl officials should be brutally lynched and hanged to death.
Now after more than a quarter of a century, the power cuts have not stopped. This Disruption is a Criminal offence and terrorises the residents into submission. The Msedcl officers responsible for these power cuts should be prosecuted. The perpetrators of this crime should be publicly hanged.
We appeal to the Central Government and get this resolved permanently. The power cuts destroy an upcoming Smart City- Navi Mumbai. We appeal to MERC to refrain Msedcl from imposing power cuts.
