Early Times Report
JAMMU, Apr 28: An Urgent meeting of the Members of the Small Scale Industries Association Digiana, Jammu was held today under the Chairmanship Sh. Jatinder Aul, President of the Association and other Members at Digiana Industrial Estate in the presence of Sh. Lalit Mahajan Chairman Federation of Industries Jammu to discuss the serious issue regarding the failure of Jammu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd to supply Uninterrupted Power Supply to the Industrial Units working in the Digiana Industrial Estate resulting huge Financial Losses to Industrial Units working in the Estate.
During the course of discussions, Sh. Jatinder Aul President Small Scale Industries Association Digiana informed the Chairman that 150 Micro & Small Scale Units located in Digiana Industrial Estate suffering very badly due to un-scheduled Power failures. At present the Power position is so worsen that the Power Supply remained disturbed during the day time resulting into huge production and financial losses.
Lalit Mahajan Chairman FOIJ draw the kind attention of Hon'ble Chief Minister Jenab Omar Abdullah also holding the charge of Power Minister that JPDCL committed to supply Uninterrupted 24 Hours Power Supply in the Notified Industrial Estates of Jammu & Kashmir but it is unfortunate to note that the Power Supply remain suspended in day time also in the Digiana Industrial Estate which shows the lack of Coordination between the Departments handling the Power Supply to Industrial Area resulting Industrial Units suffering very badly and their production always depends upon the mercy of the M&RE and Grid and System and Operation Wing of the Power Development Department who impose frequent Power Cuts without any intimation to the Unit Holders resulting huge production as well as financial losses to the Micro and Small Scale Industrial Units of Digiana who cannot effort the running cost DG Set for on the purchase of Diesel to run their units on DG Set in case of unscheduled Power cuts.
It is pertinent to mention here that Digiana Industrial Estate was the 1st Industrial Estate in Jammu Province which was established in 1962 and the Sheds were allotted to the Sons of the Soil by then Industries Minister, Govt. of India Sh. Manu Bhai Shah to bring the Jammu on the Industrial Map of the Country but by passing of the time, the Estate was always neglected in the term of Power Infrastructure Up-gradation resulting huge financial Losses to working Industrial Units of Digiana Industrial Estate as not even a single Lineman is available to rectify the Faults as the same has been transferred to some other place resulting great resentment amongst the Unit Holders.
Federation of Industries Jammu request Jenab Omar Abdullah, Hon'ble Chief Minister also holding the charge of Power Minister and Hon'ble Deputy Chief Minister Sh. Surinder Kumar Choudhary for their kindly intervention into the matter with the directions to concerned officials to ensure uninterrupted Power Supply in the Digiana Industrial Estate which will provide great relief to Industrial Units working there and also depute Lineman exclusively for the Industrial Estate immediately.
