According to the residents, the builder paid Rs 2 lakhs to NPCL to fix the electricity temporarily, and again there was an electricity cut during the night of October 1. Residents alleged that the diesel for the generator was not available and due to this, they faced difficulties.

Prateet Baijal,  a resident of the society said, “The whole society is lacking in basic amenities. Now it is a day-to-day routine of the Mayfair residents to face such difficulties. Last time in August, the same incident happened, moreover at that time, the builder also paid a temporary amount and tried to fix the issue temporarily. This time, he did the same thing and we don’t know when the electricity will be cut again.”

Another resident on the condition of anonymity said, “The builder paid the temporary amount and fixed it temporarily and we do not know when the electricity will be cut again. Last night again there was an electricity cut and the diesel for the generator was not available and due to this, we did a candle march for the poor work of the builder. We are facing difficulties on a daily basis.”
