No water for fields, crops hit: PSPCL told to compensate farmer over tubewell connection delay
A Punjab farmer, Shokeen Singh, will have his tubewell electricity connection shifted and receive Rs 50,000 compensation after a consumer commission found the power corporation guilty of deficiency in service. For three years, PSPCL's bureaucratic hurdles left Singh's fields parched. The commission slammed the corporation's "autocratic and illogical conduct" for demanding an NOC and failing to appear, ordering a simple cable extension instead.
