Chandigarh, Sept 10: Apart from the power cuts imposed by the Congress-led Chandigarh Administration, unscheduled power cuts have also been imposed on the people of Chandigarh, because of which they are feeling harassed. In a statement, local BJP chief Yash Pal Mahajan has severely criticised the Congress-led administration and said that local MP Pawan Bansal has failed miserably at protecting the interests of city residents. Chandigarh has a quota of 218 MW of electricity whereas the city is being provided only 120 MW, Mahajan claimed. He claimed that when Satya Pal Jain was MP and the BJP-led government was at the Centre, he got the proposal of setting up a 200 MW Power Station at Manimajra, but Bansal did not even try to get this power station functional since he was elected MP. Mahajan has demanded that the Congress government at the Centre provide electricity to residential and commercial consumers according to their actual need at reasonable rates.
