Mumbai, July 15 (IANS) The Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) Wednesday stayed its June order permitting Reliance Infrastructure to hike power tariff charges for various categories of domestic and commercial users.
The order passed by MERC panel comprising chairman V.P. Raja and members A. Velayutham and S.B. Kulkarni, will provide relief to the 2.7 million consumers of Reliance Infra, who will now pay their bills at the old rates till further orders.

The ruling came Wednesday evening in a matter filed by the Maharashtra government directing MERC to probe whether Reliance Infra had imposed any avoidable burden on consumers.

The state move, in the form of a letter by Energy Minister Sunil Tatkare, came in the wake of agitations by consumers and political parties against the power tariff hike last month.

Tatkare had directed MERC to take appropriate steps relating to the government’s policy with 15 days to protect consumers’ interest in a monopoly situation and to ensure that no unreasonable and unjustified bills were collected during the intervening period when the regulator’s investigation was on.

In its order Wednesday, MERC said that “since the Commission needs to undertake a detailed investigation on metering, power purchase expenses and transactions undertaken by Reliance Infra, as well as capital expenditure schemes, the tariff increase as approved by the Commission for the consumers in the earlier order on tariff hike will be stayed till the Commission issues further orders.”

Mumbai, July 12 (ANI): Having already given many hit movies, Bollywood actor Katrina Kaif is ecstatic over the success of her latest movie ‘New York’.

The film is based on the 9/11 Twin Towers attacks and it stars well-known actors like John Abraham, Katrina Kaif, and Irrfan Khan in the lead.
“New York was really one of the most special films for me. It is an amazing story and for me it was such a connected film. I really wanted to do the film to do well. I am so happy that it did. Also for director Mr. Kabir Khan; he is really one of the nicest people I know and I really wanted to work for him and I think we all are really happy that it worked….,” said Kaif on the occasion of launch of a jewellery range on Saturday.

Directed by Kabir Khan, ‘New York’ is made on a budget 4.6 million dollars and it revolves round the saga of three friends who live in the city before, during and after the 9/11 attacks.

“New York” puts the spotlight on that aspect of prejudice through the story of Samir (one of the three friends), an American of Indian origin who turns to terrorism after he is picked up by the FBI and brutally tortured for months only because he took some photographs of the twin towers for a school project.

Khan said that while researching for the film he discovered ‘a huge volume of prejudice’ and how at least 1,200 people of different nationalities were detained on the ‘basis of suspicion alone’ after the attack. (ANI)
