Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 17: A Federal Council meeting of All India Engineers Federation (AIPEF) was held on 17th Aug 2024 at Nagpur Maharashtra under the Chairmanship of Er.Shailendra Dubey, P Ratnakar Rao Secretary General , and attended among others by Er. Sachin Tickoo Vice Chairman AIPEF and General Secretary JKEEGA , Rajeshwar Jamwal Vice President JKEEGA, Ankush Gupta and Ankush Sharma (Provincial Secretaries) JKEEGA. The meeting deliberated on the issues faced by Power Engineers in Particular and Employees of Power Sector in general.
The participants discussed the imminent threats of Privatisation direct and indirect whether through Joint ventures or through modes of Tariff Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) in the Transmission sector.The meeting also discussed the failure of the Central PSUs like RECPDCL and other entities who are implementing the smart metering projects in various parts of the country.The smart meters are not being replaced , the quality control of smart meters has been compromised leading to the situation that thousands of smart meters are lying in damaged condition and honest consumers are facing host of issues by way of non billing or cumulative billing for no fault of theirs.
Even thousands of meters have turned non communicating and readings are not coming to data centre thereby exposing the poor interfacing and lack of proper planning done in smart meter implementation. It is a big challenge before the Power sector Govt employees as being face before the Public, they have been rendered helpless as infrastructure has to be managed and maintained by the smart meter implementing agency, who have failed to do their legitimate duties.
As far as Human Resource issues of Engineers and employees of Jammu and Kashmir is concerned a strong resentment was shown and resolution was passed calling upon the management of Power sector in J&K and Political diaspora to dwell on the solution to the adhocism and non regularisation of Engineers and employees of Power development Department. The assured career progression scheme for Gazetted Engineering services which is prevailing across the country has not been implemented conveniently by the Govt of J&K.While Engineers have been made scape goats by suspending them and putting them into prolonged suspension since over 6 months and not taking into consideration the infrastructure challenges and manpower constraints they are facing on ground. Out of 2500 Posts in Engineering cadre nearly 800 position are vacant in J&K.
The Power Engineers Federation put up a strong appeal to the Central government to desist from introducing Direct or indirect Privatisation measures which have adversely affected not only the employees of Power sector but also have done no good for the consumers in general.
