Newsclick interviewed Prabir Purkayastha, member of the Delhi Science Forum about the CAG draft report to the Delhi government on the Delhi electricity companies. Prabir said the concerned companies Reliance and TATA played fraud and cheated the consumers of Delhi. The companies made huge profits by looting the public money. Therefore it is not just reparation that must be demand of the culprits but they should also be punished. He said the regulatory system itself is not feasible for electricity and water: these are basic resources and so these cannot be considered to be a part of the market system. This is what the experience has shown all over the world. Prabir advocates the privatisation policies followed by the UPA and NDA governments to be stopped to rectify this.
