LETTERS TO THE EDITORConsumers suffer as EB delays replacing

faulty metersSir, Water inundated several residential complexes on the

streets off Usman Road, T. Nagar during the heavy rainsfollowed by floods last December.

As a result, the power meters which got submerged inwater in some of these complexes got damaged.

Due to the faulty meters, the reading personnel who cameon Feb. 4, could not record the consumption for the periodDec. 15 to Jan. 16. This forced the consumers to rush to theEB office to ascertain the amount payable so as to avoidpower disconnection.

In such cases, EB calculates the consumption based on thehighest consumption in a year divided by two.

An EB official informed the consumers that as thousandsof meters had gone faulty, the replacement could take time.He also said that the lack of enough manpower could furtherdelay the process of replacement of the faulty meters.

This would mean that the affected consumers will have topay the amount based on the above formula till such time themeters are replaced. The question is: Why should the con-sumers suffer for no fault of theirs? Secondly, there could beconsumers whose average monthly consumption maybe lowerthan the amount arrived at by the formula used by EB as inany particular month during the year consumption couldhave gone up due to unavoidable reasons.

It is a grossly unfair method of calculation employed by EBwhose responsibility it is to immediately replace the faultymeters. V. S. Jayaraman, 31, Motilal Street, T. Nagar.

Metrowater engineer acts swiftly to arrestsewage problem

Sir, On Feb. 15, at round 9 a.m, when I was standing in thequeue to get my monthly quota of ration at the shop onRameswaram Road, T. Nagar, I noticed sewage overflowingfrom a manhole and stagnating on the road. The sewageoverflow was causing lot of hardship to the consumers linedup outside the ration shop. Also, there is another building onthe road that houses a canteen and serves as a hostel forhundreds of women working in a nearby textile showroom. Iimmediately telephoned Nelliappar (Engineer, Zone 10, Ward136) and informed him about the overflow.

He took swift action and within minutes, deployed a teamof workers to clear the block in the manhole. I was still in thequeue when the work was started. I wish to place on recordmy heartfelt thanks to Nellaiappar for his prompt responseto the complaint and share the same with the readers ofMambalam Times. Nelliappar’s contact number is 8144930136. V.
