Interesting to see the unique scheme of Kerala
State Electricity Board (KSEB) for domestic consumers which allows them to earn
cash back for power saved. KSEB has asked its domestic consumers to save around
10 per cent from their electricity and earn incentives. This is nothing but a
joke of State Power Minister Aryadan Mohammed.
To understand the folly of this announcement
just wait for one month and watch how many of the ordinary customers have been
paid incentives. Presumably there would be no account with KSEB about the consumers
who saved power and of course none would
be paid a single paisa as incentive.
It is the
ministers, politicians and bureaucrats to place before the public the account
of the power they have saved during the said period. With huge bills in their households,
and offices and that too paid with the
tax-payers' money, people will always look up on them with sarcasm. Power
saving and subsequent incentive are intended for common man but they soon
recognize that they are hoodwinked. The power bills of ministers will be, of
course, higher than that of the previous month.
