Baljit Beniwal vice president said that the show cause notices are being issued to engineers without any basis, which is not only affecting the efficiency of the officers but also creating a negative atmosphere, which is detrimental to the work culture. The association has requested the administration to take appropriate action to resolve this problem.
All the three Nigams have not had any restructuring despite the fact that workload has been increased manifold. The number of consumers, transmission lines network has increased but administration has not done anything to streamline the working.
