CLEANER POWER OR TO CLEAN POKETS

Power supplier or power generator supply power.
Consumer is not concerned whether power is from coal burning or gas buring power station. Pollution control norms have been in place for more than forty years.
Delhi Rajghat or IP station failed to meet norms and this was accepted by GOVERNMENT at centre and state level.
Coal supplied to power stations has very high content of ash and very low calorific value.
In fact such coal may be unfit for other purposes.
Such coal needed high quality precipator to trap ash so that it doesnot get released in atmosphere.
Unfortunately all authorities failed and now electricity consumers in Delhi will be asked to shell out more.
Already BSES etc are eying increase in tariff. Such moves need to be snubbed in the bud and electronic and press need to be responsive,organise discussions and live interviews etc.
We the social activists must galvanise and pool our efforts to formulate our response.
