LUDHIANA: Faced with various problems related to the working of the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL), a delegation of city businessmen met chief engineer of the organisation.
According to them, the biggest issue for them is levy of fixed charges for the period of lockdown when the industry was not working. The other issues are erratic power supply and long time taken by the PSPCL to resolve certain day-to-day problems. Businessmen are also of the view that a coordination committee should be formed, in which representatives of the industry and PSPCL officials too should be enrolled as members. This committee can help resolve the problems of the industry faster and also implement suggestions of businessmen to improve the working of the PSPCL.
