Sir,
This has reference to the news item ‘Govt bans use of incandescent lamps’ DE Feb 13.
Better later than never. It is a well-intentioned more and needs to be implemented in letter and spirit. This will not save electricity but will also save the environment from getting warmer.
In the USA, this step was taken some five years ago and that shows how much they are concerned about saving electricity and environment. It is one of the steps towards improving power situation in the State. But a question arise: can over really overcome the present power situation in the State. The answer is no, unless we stop power pilferage which is going on unabetedly in the State. Though big fish enjoy power thefts, it is small fries which have to pay a heavy price. They are accountable. They are e-metered. They are fined humiliated and harassed. By targetting this section only, no improvement can be expected. It is therefore urgent that power reforms be initiated in the over all interest of the people of State. That is the way out of darkness.
Yours etc….
