I think it's still 700 ltrs / day. & that caveat, if you use more than 700ltrs / day you will be charged for the entire amount. Did this hidden clause exist in their manifesto? I think NOT! Maybe Delhiites will have to install a water meter & start measuring the water they consume. However Jal board will have ways to manipulate the meter reading & see that everyone uses more than stipulated amount of water! Nothing changes....
Thanks for spotting that..the rediff link had it as 700 litres/month but I have since realised this is not the case.

Nevertheless, as you have rightly pointed out there were no conditions attached to the giveaway in the manifesto but now it turns out it is to be time limited and carries cost implications that would most likely be passed on to consumers. AAP's argument that such freebies would be funded through efficiency savings has been thoroughly debunked once again

You guys need to understand the reasoning behind it.

700 ltr per day is good enough for a household. If it is uncapped, people will waste more water since they know even if reading goes 1000 they have to pay just for 300 ltrs. We should not let them forget the importance of water saving.

That's a negative.

If they use 701L they have to pay for the entire 701L.

Agree to a point where one needs to realize the value of using water economically. But the issue here is moving away from the stated position before elections. There was no mention of the fact that one will be charged for the entire amount if they cross the threshold of 700ltrs. Add to that...manifesto has never mentioned the fact that this will be on a probationary period for three months initially. I'm not saying that this is a bad thing. Just pointing out the irregularities in statements before election & after election.

why they want to use 700ltr ? One should not expect free living. Families which need more than 700 ltr should pay, since they can pay for the luxury.

you have to cap it to some value.

The point is the current solution is good or not? Not that it is slightly different.

They have said to reduce electricity bill by 50%. What if they could only manage 30%? Will you complement them or condemn them?

Why not? They're getting it for free right? It is their right to use 700l of water for free. However if by accident somebody leaves the tap on too long, they have to pay for their entire usage.
 
as ur prof name "doublemaster" extrapolating some of ur character also jus like"doublespeak" "double-face":omghaha::omghaha:
Idiot...Read once...and come up with some good stuff...why to waste time?
Fact is your saheb gone nuts after lost his life...

You all trolls expect me to post the link owned by LK Advani?

Vajpayee is no Brahmin. He drinks alcohol and publicly claims that he is a bachelor but not a Bramachari. How can he be called a Brahmin with those 'qualifications' - Keep this ....This is from your beloved leader SubraManya Swami...You will blive this...Same subramnaya swami whom modi indicted to BJP also told, vajpayee colluded with Britsh during quit india movement...

Just chill guys..!

For these people, Price rise is a issue when it comes to congress...Price reduction is issue when it comes to AAP :)

Would not condemn at all, but complement for making an effort. Would be disappointed to notice them falling short on their poll promise though. 'cause AAP is suppose to be a party with difference & with kind of high moral standards they set for themselves, one would want to see them come good on their promises without leaving any room for detractors to pick on.

If AAP can implement even half of their ideas I will be happy that I supported this party.

Cynics can cry for rest half which they might fail to do in very first term.

Yaar, they are new, they are first.....let them implement even half of their promises, even that would be complemented. By raising insignificant question we will simply bring down their enthusiasm.

We should not be the one who cry for the rest half, atleast they bring up the new kind of politics and make congress and bjp think of their monopolies.

What's the great big idea that AAP promised? Giving free water as a subsidy could have been given by anyone, this hardly makes them special. What a waste, should have asked the Jal Bhavan to atleast use the funds at their disposal to formulate a workable idea to deliver water to those desperately needing it. (Those are the not the ones consuming metered water btw)
 
Raman and Dashrath Patel Brothers seek CBI probe into firing:

Owners of Popular Builders Raman and Dashrath Patel have filed a petition in Gujarat high court, demanding a CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) probe into the firing on them. This could spell trouble for all the accused especially suspended IPS officers DG Vanzara and Abhay Chudasama and former minister of state for home Amit Shah in the Sohrabuddin Sheikh and Tulsiram Prajapati fake encounter cases though.
During Tuesday’s hearing, CBI expressed willingness to investigate the case while the state government sought time to reply. Justice Harsha Devani has adjourned the matter for further hearing till December 26.

Meanwhile, the December 2004 firing at the office of Popular Builders has a unique significance in the Sohrabuddin fake encounter case. It is alleged that Prajapati and Sylvester Daniel had fired four rounds at the office of the builders on Sohrabuddin’s orders.

During the investigation and according to the charge sheet filed in the court, the investigating agency had also stated that the firing at the Popular Builders’ office was stage managed by some of the accused in the Sohrabuddin encounter case like DG Vanzara, Abhay Chudasama and Amit Shah. The CBI alleged that the three were running an extortion racket through Sheikh.

On December 8, 2004, two gunmen had fired at the office of the Patels in which no one was injured. Navrangpura police had registered a case, which was shifted to the Ahmedabad City Detection of Crime Branch, where suspended IPS officer DG Vanzara was in charge. Later, he was transferred to the Gujarat ATS (Anti-Terrorist Squad) as deputy inspector general of police and subsequently, investigation of the Popular Builders firing case, too, was shifted to the ATS.

The police had named the Patel brothers accused along with some others for destroying evidence in the case.

The Patel brothers, meanwhile, faced a separate criminal prosecution following a complaint lodged by the police at a criminal court in Ahmedabad. The charge sheet was submitted against the duo long ago.

Now, the Patels have petitioned the HC demanding a CBI probe into the case or a report to be submitted by the agency that the firing on them was stage managed by the accused police officers and others using the members of Sohrabuddin’s gang to extort money from the petitioners.

The point is how will they reduce? Anyone can put up a subsidy, someone else will be left footing the bill. There are no free lunches anywhere, it is only the gullible who will believe that. AAP said that they would go after the electricity companies and reduce the cost, that won't happen anytime soon & neither Kejriwal or anyone else in AAP is stupid to believe that. So, all we are left with is a subsidy.Anyone could have done that. Kejriwal & AAP are likely to make long term damage to Delhi's finances in a very short time.

The scheme was for people to meet basic requirements, not for rich people to dance with their loofahs. It's a damn good way to filter out the needy from the rich.

I actually think the AAP going after the ambanis is a good thing. There is a point in how reliance has got higher prices than what they had originally been agreed upon.
