Water cess notice of Rs 871 crore given to power companies

Water cess notice Rs 871 crore given power companies

Shimla: Amidst the ongoing case in the High Court, Himachal government has issued notice of water cess of Rs 871 crore to 173 power-generating companies. This notice was given by the Water Cess Commission.

This water cess bill is for five months from March 2023 to July 2023. It has been said in the notice that within the next 10 days the companies should deposit this money in the bank accounts given by the Water Cess Commission.

Energy companies have also been given the option to choose three installments till December 2023 to make this payment.

It is noteworthy that Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu’s government in the state had decided to impose water cess on water used for power generation and a formal law has been made for this.Many Government of India undertakings have gone to the High Court against this decision.

Water cess notice Rs 871 crore given power companies

Although 135 out of 173 power companies had registered themselves with the Water Cess Commission, the Government of India is stopping the PSUs from paying the money as per the decision of the State Government and this decision is also being opposed in the High Court.

Even during the last hearing, the Central Government had told the court that it wants to fight this case in the Supreme Court. However, there has been no further discussion till now. Here, the state government wants to earn Rs 2000 crore additional revenue every year through water cess.

If a bill of Rs 871 crore is being made for five months, then this much money is also expected to come in one year. Despite the matter going to the High Court, the power companies have not yet received any immediate relief or stay.

This is the biggest reason why the state government issued these bills after the formation of the Water Cess Commission. Before this, the rate of water cess was also halved. Now it is twice that of Uttarakhand.

Himachal Government has enacted Himachal Pradesh Watercess Hydro Power Generation Act 2023 to impose water cess. This has been challenged by the public sector companies in the Himachal High Court.

In Himachal, a game of fraud was being run through three fake websites in the name of crypto currency.

Crypto Currency Fraud

In Himachal Pradesh, new victims are coming forward every day in the case of fraud of crores of rupees in the name of crypto currency. Meanwhile, it has come to light that three vicious people were running a black business of fraud in the name of crypto currency through fake websites.

People were made victims of fraud through MLM i.e. Multi Level Market. People are made happy by showing high returns in coins and dollars in fake websites. Seeing these, new people are forced to invest themselves.

In the investigation, it is being found that initially they kept giving money to the people by showing fabricated high returns on the fake website, but later it became difficult to manage everything and the main accused went underground.

Along with this the website was also closed. The vicious people kept talking about investing in fake websites like crypto currency, Coreview, DGT, Beatpad. As per the rules, the victims were shown their growth and returns.

In most of the cases reported so far, only cash has been given by the victims to the miscreants, whereas online payment has been very less.

The miscreants had created a chain from top to bottom under MLM and deceived people by showing expensive hotels and expensive cars. Now a total of 28 cases have been reported in Cyber Police Station Mandi Zone.

Of these, allegations of fraud of about Rs 13 crore have been made. The investors are said to be some government employees, some senior officials, some eminent people of the society and others.

Crypto Currency Fraud

After paying 30 percent of the income from crypto currency as tax, after it was recognized, people’s inclination towards it increased, but due to lack of verification and information, they kept depositing their life-long capital with vicious people instead of at the right place. .

Both the accused will be brought to the market under production warrant.

Two accused will be brought to Mandi under production warrant for questioning regarding the complaints received in the Cyber Police Station. Only after interrogating the accused will the correct figures regarding the amount defrauded in the Mandi zone be revealed.

In many cases, it is also coming to light that the miscreants had given responsibilities to people from block to district level under MLM. Many victims had no direct link to the main accused.

Many victims were already associated with people under MLM and were investing their savings, but later became victims of fraud when they did not get anything.

Vicious was associated with MLM earlier also

Both the arrested accused were already associated with MLM. The game of fraud in the name of crypto currency started in 2018-19. People invested heavily in this in order to earn double in 11 months.

What is crypto currency?

Cryptocurrency is virtual money. The Indian government has imposed a 30 percent tax on the profits earned on investing in crypto currency.

Many people have made profits by investing in crypto currency through the right means, but miscreants were committing fraud in the name of crypto currency. They were taking money in the name of investment, but in reality instead of investing the money was being embezzled.

On the other hand, Cyber ​​Crime ASP Mandi Manmohar Singh said that complaints related to this matter are being received. Statements of the victims are being recorded. Investigation is going on in the matter as per rules. At present nothing more can be said in this matter.

SMC teachers continue their protest outside the secretariat

smc-teachers-protest-outside-himachal-pradesh-secretariat-continues

Shimla: The protest of SMC teachers continues near the State Secretariat on Wednesday morning. State President of SMC Teachers Association, Sunil Sharma said that we are trying to meet the Chief Minister with our demands and want to present the struggle of the last 12 years before him. We have not come to cause any sabotage, we have come to demand our rights peacefully.

Women comrades are with us on the streets, they are also known as nation builders, but today these same national builders are on the streets. This is such a shame.

Our demand is that a permanent solution should be found for us and if it is not found then our protest will become more aggressive. We were given many assurances but all were bundles of lies.

The government has a big excuse of disaster but an amount of Rs 4500 crore has been sanctioned for the disaster and nothing for us. This is a betrayal to us. We have 2500 teachers on the streets.

Our sisters have small children who are at home, we also gave the Chief Minister the option of meeting us at Oak Over but he did not accept that too. The Congress Party had placed this prominently in its election manifesto but it also turned out to be a big lie.

Akhand Dhuna is burning in the temple

Mamleshwar Mahadev Temple is said to have a deep connection with the Pandavas. It is said that during their exile, Pandavas had also spent some time in Mamel village.

There is a sacred flame or Dhuna in this temple which is said to be burning continuously since the Mahabharata period. There is a story told behind this monolithic tune and it is as follows-

When the Pandavas were wandering in exile, they stayed in this village for some time. At that time, a demon had camped in a cave in this village.

To save themselves from the wrath of that demon, people had made an agreement with that demon that they would send one person to him every day for his food so that he does not kill the entire village at once.

Mamleshwar Mahadev Temple Karsoga Valley

One day, the boy of the house in which the Pandavas were staying was to be sent to the demon. Seeing the boy’s mother crying, the Pandavas asked the reason and she told that today she had to send her son to the demon.

To fulfill his duty as a guest, Bhima among the Pandavas himself went to the demon instead of the boy.

When Bhima went to that demon, there was a fierce fight between them and Bhima killed that demon and freed the village from him. It is said that this unbroken flame is burning continuously in memory of this victory of Bhima.
