To

                                    The Hon’ble Chief Minister,

                                    H.P. Govt. Shimla-2

                                   

                                    The Chief Secretary,

                                    To the Govt. of H.P. Shimla-2

                                    The Principal Secretary ( Finance),

                                    To the Government of H.P. Shimla-2

Subject:                      Suggestions for the preparation of Budget 2013-14

in response to the State Government call…..Construction of Large /big Power Projects in Himachal Pradesh.

Sir,

                                    The Government of Himachal Pradesh has set up H.P. Power Corporation Ltd. which is executing small power projects ranging 5-10 MW power generation. The big projects are neither being executed by H.P. Power Corporation Ltd. nor by the State Government. 

                                    In order to execute big power projects and have power generation in plenty , an agency , executing such projects is the demand of the day to earn revenue to the state exchequer by an agency which should have the control of State Government. This agency will not only earn revenue but also   provide employment to the educated un employed youth. Therefore, the Proposal is as under:-

                                     In order to materialize this proposal, formation of a cooperative Society, namely “HP Government  Pensioners  and Serving Employees-  Co-Operative Society is only required to be formed under the ausis of State Government which can later be registered as a Company . For this purpose , the State Government will only have to do  a provision of token money required for the registration of a company. The shares of the society, later on registered as company will be sold to HP. Government Pensioners and Serving employees. The share money so collected will run in thousands of crores of rupees . This share amount can be collected from the D.A. installments which the Government have to pay after every six months in crores of rupees. The wards of the share holders i.e. pensioners and serving Government employees , who have aquired higher education in many fields like engineering etc. could be adjusted in the construction of such large projects in various categories of posts , thereby minimizing the un employment problems in the State .

                                    The second proposal is to earn revenue for the state in a big way. A  provision for allotment of  encroached Government land  by way of giving the same on perpetual/ 99 years of lease is needed to be made. A huge quantity of Government land is presently encroached by individuals throughout the state and the Government is quite unable to get the encroached land back .Therefore , it will be in the best  interest of the State Government as also of the individual encroacher  to allot the so detected encroached land to the individuals on perpetual / 99 years lease basis against some lease money / fee as prescribed . By this way , the lease money  / fee so  collected by the State Government  will definitely run into thousands crores  of rupees and the propriety of the Government on the such land will also be maintained.

                                    It is , therefore, requested that the above two proposals may kindly be incorporated in the budget for the year 2013-14 so that the State Government may earn huge revenue and the interest at large of the public could be taken into account by the State Government.

                                    Thanking you,

                                                                                                            Yours faithfully,

                                                                                                            Sita Ram Dhiman,
