It has been almost 3
months,Blogging was not on the list of my routine. I was not very busy, but
still there were few things which were
on priority and they needed to be taken care of !
In these days,I have thought
again and again of writing because many were the things I wanted to share !.
The major among it ,I switched to
a new company.. Departed from the loved ones ..( I mean from the old company !
:P )
Seen and faced many things, mixed
feelings.. Enjoyed few ones and was hurt by few .. But that is what life is all
about.
I,till now have followed the
approach of a storyteller.
Usually love to narrate the
things which happen nearby....Which involves me.
But from last few days, I have
thought of changing the approach for a bit.
I do not want to share some
things that involve me this time.
So let me get started on it.
When I have seen some things
happening around me, I love to analyze them in my own way. I try to justify
them to my heart and extract some sense out of it.
Off late, I have taken a rather
long holiday due to some health problem. In that free time, I have seen many
things which I have seen earlier.
But at that time, those things
have skipped and the details were unnoticed.
At this time, I had all the time
in the world to think on these simple things and elaborate them to myself.
This is one of those things on
which I have not thought hard in past.
Electricity... Yes .. I belong to
a place where the M.S.E.B. has given us only 16 hours to charge our mobiles.
I am not complaining about
missing 8 hours (my mobile gets charged up in 2 hours), but come on..this is
something that has been happening from last 7-8 years and we have got used to
it.
Irritation, Frustration and anger
all has passed away now. We have started to accept the situation as it is. But
when you are in Mumbai, you do not see a single minute of interruption in the
supply.
(I know, Its much important to
this city to have electricity than my town... anytime)
But why on the earth, we are
taken for granted to get only 16 hours.
I am not complaining about my 8
hours. Actual situation is worse.
My town needs to manage for only
8 hours, but the villages nearby have almost 16 to 18 hours of cut off.
I am clueless how they still have
managed to do in the farms? And make their living?.
Even nearly every farmer in there
has Inverters, but unfortunately, they do not even get enough time to charge
the batteries.
There certainly is need to do
something on this issue.
Congress government is doing
great at this moment by sidelining all the major issues happening around us.
Food .. Electricity and water are
the areas on which at least I haven't noticed any significant development in
last 4-5 years.
Still, Congress managed to get
the majority!! .. Bravo !!
The point is .. What and why the
delay ?
The dams have enough water to
produce the electricity and the rain is also above expectation.
But when asked to a engineer in
MSEB , the project is not able to produce enough output to satisfy the needs.
Come on man!!... About 7-8 years
ago, government rejected and closed the "Enron" power plants, saying
they are producing electricity at very high cost.
Now.. the other vendors are even
charging more and still they are not able to satisfy the needs.
What to do now ?.. I am finding
my answers on this.
If you have something to share,
please feel free. I want some light on it !!
(I know this whole post may
sound boring to you, but this is a point where someone needs to speak up..
Let's spread the word and ask the answers to the government.)

Incidentally visited your blog from a facebook update of a friend.
You have got some skills to write and express the feelings in better way! I do agree with the crises that maharashtrian people are facing.I am how ever clueless why the solar panels and windmills are making such a slow progress in here ? Even no one is taking initiative to promote them and finding other alternatives to the power. Such a shame !
Hope some one from us only will come up with a better solution and then we will take a breathe of ease!
