Sir/Madam
MSEDCL has been resorting to load shedding and irregular power cuts in Khanda Colony Sector 9 again since 22nd November 2015. This ignominy is rampant in many societies at Khanda Colony. The residents have been suffering for the last 3 days now and the situation does not seem to improve at all. There was a power cut from 7.00 p.m. to 8.15 p.m. on 22/11/15 and again during late night hours. There was a power cut again on 23/11/15 from 8.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. and again on 24/11/15 from 10.45 a.m. to 12.30 p.m..This is in addition to the irregular power cuts during late night hours on some days which disturbs the residents work schedule.

Despite several requests, MSEDCL has been torturing the residents again and again.
The residents have been suffering at the hands of MSEDCL despite paying all their bills regularly and that too well before the due date. The Khanda Colony residents are a educated lot and do not waste electricity. They use CFL lamps and help conserve electricity. Load shedding is not the solution and electricity generation is the need of the hour.
As a result of such power cuts, the following are the problems faced by the residents:-
1. Costly vegetables, fruits stored in the refrigerator get spoilt leading to tremendous losses.
2. Children and senior citizens cannot cope up with the heat and suffocation and suffer from various ailments.
3. There is no water supply which inconveniences the residents due to power outage and the weekly chores get completely disturbed.
4. Incidents of Thefts and crime increase in the darkness.
5. Many a times senior citizens and children get trapped in the lifts and this leads to severe trauma and stress and illness.
We appeal to the authorities to kindly take up the matter with MSEDCL immediately and get this resolved permanently.
The residents have been suffering from power cuts for the last 30 years and NOW, if MSEDCL cannot provide 24 hours POWER to its Navi Mumbai residents from Vashi to Panvel, then TATA Power should be invited to insulate this Navi Mumbai city from Vashi to Panvel.
