Grievance Description-An application under Article 51 A of the constitution of India to make inquiry regarding the recovery of the Electricity duty and penalty imposed on the Dileep Singh S/O Raghuvar Dayal Singh which is quite obvious from the communication exchanged from the executive engineer electricity distribution division second Mr Rajesh Kumar as follows. Both Hindi and English versions of the communication are given below for the perusal of the honourable Sir.
Where is good governance? I have made repeated request.to the executive engineer. Electricity Distribution Division second, Mr Rajesh Kumar.to take action against theft of electricity. But he only provided a false assurances to the applicant.
Sir, in spite of enough complaints no action is being taken from your level which is very unfortunate.
Sir, if there is recovery from power thieves in case of power theft, the image of the department will be good but this is not happening. The employees of the department themselves have adopted an evasive attitude.
On the issue of theft of electricity, Executive Engineer, Electricity Distribution Division, second Mr. Rajesh Kumar is neither replying RTI applications submitted by the applicant nor addressing the grievances submitted by the applicant on the public grievance portal at the Government of India which is a mockery of the law of land.
Whether it is not indiscipline on the part of Executive Engineer, Electricity Distribution Division, second. Who is procrastinating on the matter for a long time.by overlooking the repeated request of the applicant.
How can it be justified that an executive engineer deliberately overlooked the matter concerning the deep rooted corruption in the department of electricity, government of Uttar Pradesh causing huge loss to the public exchequer? It is a well established truth that pending matters are never in the interest of the government.
Short submissions of the application are as follows.
1-Think about the gravity of the situation, theft of electricity was caught red handed in the premises being done by Dileep Singh on 2nd September 2021. Whether the department is not adopting a lackadaisical approach in the recovery of electricity charges and penalties imposed.
2-I do not think that there is any loss if the recovery of the electricity charges and imposed penalties is carried out from Dileep Singh son of Raghuvar Dayal Singh by the Department of electricity . Procrastination on the part of the department is only showing the dereliction of the duty of the concerned accountable staff.
3-If the matter becomes old then its importance lowers down so it is a humble request of the applicant to take action in the matter with dedication to the duty so that recovery may be carried out smoothly.
For the more details, please take the perusal of the following communication submitted by the executive engineer electricity distribution division second Mr Rajesh Kumar on the Jansunwai portal of the government of Uttar Pradesh.
