Jammu, 20-07-2024: A delegation from the Bari Brahmana Industries Association (BBIA), led by Sh. Tarun Singla, Senior Vice President, BBIA, met with Sh. Vikas Kundal (IAS), Managing Director, Jammu Power Development Corporation Ltd. (JPDCL), in the presence of Sh. Rajesh Jain, Secretary, BBIA, at his office chamber.
During the meeting, Sh. Tarun Singla highlighted several pressing issues affecting the industrial sector that require immediate attention. Key issues discussed included the shortage of Junior Engineers (JEs) and linemen in the Bari Brahmana Industrial Complex, which severely impacts industrial units during faults. Additionally, the delegation requested a waiver of the condition for creating a sub-division for industrial units with a power load of 1000 kV, the application of simple interest on outstanding power bill payments, and the timely payment to MSME units for supplying materials to power departments.
In response to the concerns raised by BBIA, the Managing Director, JPDCL, promptly sanctioned three linemen for the Bari Brahmana Industrial Complex, a request pending for the past four years. The BBIA expressed gratitude for this swift decision.
Furthermore, Sh. Vikas Kundal assured the members that all necessary steps would be taken to address the various issues highlighted by the Senior Vice President, BBIA.
