This new scheme can pose a challenge in front of Ratan Tata led Tata Power and also Gautam Adani led Adani Power and other electric companies. Adani Power is an Indian multinational power and energy company, subsidiary of Adani Group. It operates in different states like Gujrat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan. Tata Power-DDL has also launched a ‘Tatkal’ scheme for providing same-day temporary electricity connections ahead of the festival season it said on Thursday.
What Is Anil Ambani Company’s ‘Tatkal’ Scheme?
BSES’s ‘Tatkal’ connections provide a sustainable alternative to diesel generators, significantly reducing noise and air pollution. These temporary connections are also hassle-free, cost-effective and safe, the statement said.
“Our ‘Tatkal’ service ensures that celebrations are brighter and the environment less polluted. By leveraging our advanced IT systems and streamlined processes, we are making same-day connections a reality, directly contributing to Delhi’s fight against pollution,” a BSES official said.
Get New Connection In 24 Hours
This initiative cuts down the waiting period for new connections from up to seven days to just a few hours. Understanding the critical importance of reliable power supply during the festivities, the BSES has placed its operations and maintenance teams on high alert, the power distribution company said.
By reducing dependence on diesel generators, the ‘Tatkal’ service significantly lowers harmful emissions. This initiative underscores BSES’s commitment to environmental stewardship and aligns with the broader goals of the GRAP to improve air quality during a critical period, it added.
How To Apply For New Connection?
People can apply for new connections via the BSES website, mobile application, WhatsApp, or at customer care/Digi Seva centres, it said.
“The BSES has launched ‘Tatkal’, offering same-day temporary electricity connections for events such as Durga Puja, Diwali melas, Ramlilas, and weddings. Consumers can now obtain a temporary connection within 24 hours after completing the required formalities. This initiative not only enhances the festive spirit but also contributes to efforts to reduce air pollution,” the statement said.
