There are 26 builders who are not supplying regular power supply as per the load and diesel generator sets are used to meet the high demand. The meeting was further informed that regular power connections have been issued to 12 builders as per the adequate power load.

As per the recently framed policy, power connections are being issued by the Residents’ Welfare Associations and developers in case the amount is deposited for it.
