&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;There are around 2,000 dark spots in the capital. Last year, poles for streetlights were erected here but the illumination hasn&amp;rsquo;t happened so far. A prime reason for this is that various civic agencies haven&amp;rsquo;t been able to sort out jurisdiction issues. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2016, 7,428 potentially dangerous dark spots had been identified through a pan Delhi survey by NGO Safety Pin. Since the municipal corporations didn&amp;rsquo;t have the wherewithal to handle these, the Delhi government began an initiative in July that year to install LED streetlights on their behalf. Both the north and east corporations issued no-objection certificates for the work. &amp;ldquo;We were to just install the lights and hand them over to the corporations. The work was to take three to four months,&amp;rdquo; said a PWD official.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But more than 25 months later, the Rs 22-crore project is only 70% complete. That translates to 5,472 spots that were illuminated. So, what happened to the rest? To put it simply, they got stuck in the proverbial red tape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The north corporation isn&amp;rsquo;t willing to take over 1,956 sites where the poles have been erected but the meters are yet to be put up. The civic body argues that these are located in unauthorised colonies and areas that don&amp;rsquo;t fall under its jurisdiction. A senior corporation engineer said the civic body won&amp;rsquo;t &amp;ldquo;energise&amp;rdquo; these poles. &amp;ldquo;Meters were installed in areas under our jurisdiction. We are already facing numerous disputes in terms of electricity bills from the poles we installed earlier. It will add to the financial burden of an already cash-strapped civic body,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But PWD argues that the streetlighting work was done by it for the corporations and the completed sites were handed over to the corporations to run and maintain them. &amp;ldquo;If there was a jurisdiction issue, why did they provide an NOC?&amp;rdquo; the PWD official pointed out.&lt;br /&gt;

Last year, poles for streetlights were erected here but the illumination hasn&amp;rsquo;t happened so far. A prime reason for this is that various civic agencies haven&amp;rsquo;t been able to sort out jurisdiction issues. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2016, 7,428 potentially dangerous dark spots had been identified through a pan Delhi survey by NGO Safety Pin. Since the municipal corporations didn&amp;rsquo;t have the wherewithal to handle these, the Delhi government began an initiative in July that year to install LED streetlights on their behalf. Both the north and east corporations issued no-objection certificates for the work. &amp;ldquo;We were to just install the lights and hand them over to the corporations. The work was to take three to four months,&amp;rdquo; said a PWD official.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But more than 25 months later, the Rs 22-crore project is only 70% complete. That translates to 5,472 spots that were illuminated. So, what happened to the rest? To put it simply, they got stuck in the proverbial red tape.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The north corporation isn&amp;rsquo;t willing to take over 1,956 sites where the poles have been erected but the meters are yet to be put up. The civic body argues that these are located in unauthorised colonies and areas that don&amp;rsquo;t fall under its jurisdiction. A senior corporation engineer said the civic body won&amp;rsquo;t &amp;ldquo;energise&amp;rdquo; these poles. &amp;ldquo;Meters were installed in areas under our jurisdiction. We are already facing numerous disputes in terms of electricity bills from the poles we installed earlier. It will add to the financial burden of an already cash-strapped civic body,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But PWD argues that the streetlighting work was done by it for the corporations and the completed sites were handed over to the corporations to run and maintain them. &amp;ldquo;If there was a jurisdiction issue, why did they provide an NOC?&amp;rdquo; the PWD official pointed out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/city-frets-about-womens-safety-but-30-of-its-dark-spots-remain/articleshow/65834392.cms&quot; title=&quot;https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/city-frets-about-womens-safety-but-30-of-its-dark-spots-remain/articleshow/65834392.cms&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;There are around 2,000 dark spots in the capital. Last year, poles for streetlights were erected here but the illumination hasn&amp;rsquo;t happened so far. A prime reason for this is that various civic agencies haven&amp;rsquo;t been able to sort out jurisdiction issues. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2016, 7,428 potentially dangerous dark spots had been identified through a pan Delhi survey by NGO Safety Pin. Since the municipal corporations didn&amp;rsquo;t have the wherewithal to handle these, the Delhi government began an initiative in July that year to install LED streetlights on their behalf. Both the north and east corporations issued no-objection certificates for the work. &amp;ldquo;We were to just install the lights and hand them over to the corporations. The work was to take three to four months,&amp;rdquo; said a PWD official.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But more than 25 months later, the Rs 22-crore project is only 70% complete. That translates to 5,472 spots that were illuminated. So, what happened to the rest? To put it simply, they got stuck in the proverbial red tape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The north corporation isn&amp;rsquo;t willing to take over 1,956 sites where the poles have been erected but the meters are yet to be put up. The civic body argues that these are located in unauthorised colonies and areas that don&amp;rsquo;t fall under its jurisdiction. A senior corporation engineer said the civic body won&amp;rsquo;t &amp;ldquo;energise&amp;rdquo; these poles. &amp;ldquo;Meters were installed in areas under our jurisdiction. We are already facing numerous disputes in terms of electricity bills from the poles we installed earlier. It will add to the financial burden of an already cash-strapped civic body,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But PWD argues that the streetlighting work was done by it for the corporations and the completed sites were handed over to the corporations to run and maintain them. &amp;ldquo;If there was a jurisdiction issue, why did they provide an NOC?&amp;rdquo; the PWD official pointed out.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>NEW DELHI: </em>There are around 2,000 dark spots in the capital. Last year, poles for streetlights were erected here but the illumination hasn&rsquo;t happened so far. A prime reason for this is that various civic agencies haven&rsquo;t been able to sort out jurisdiction issues. <br />

Delhi frets about women's safety, but 30% of its dark spots remain -Paras Singh

-The Times of India NEW DELHI: There are around 2,000 dark spots in the capital. Last year, poles for streetlights were erected here but the illumination hasn’t happened so far. A prime reason for this is that various civic agencies haven’t been able to sort out jurisdiction issues. In 2016, 7,428 potentially dangerous dark spots had been identified through a pan Delhi survey by NGO Safety Pin. Since the municipal corporations didn’t have the wherewithal to handle these, the Delhi government began an initiative in July that year to install LED streetlights on their behalf. Both the north and east corporations issued no-objection certificates for the work. “We were to just install the lights and hand them over to the corporations. The work was to take three to four months,” said a PWD official. But more than 25 months later, the Rs 22-crore project is only 70% complete. That translates to 5,472 spots that were illuminated. So, what happened to the rest? To put it simply, they got stuck in the proverbial red tape. The north corporation isn’t willing to take over 1,956 sites where the poles have been erected but the meters are yet to be put up. The civic body argues that these are located in unauthorised colonies and areas that don’t fall under its jurisdiction. A senior corporation engineer said the civic body won’t “energise” these poles. “Meters were installed in areas under our jurisdiction. We are already facing numerous disputes in terms of electricity bills from the poles we installed earlier. It will add to the financial burden of an already cash-strapped civic body,” he said. But PWD argues that the streetlighting work was done by it for the corporations and the completed sites were handed over to the corporations to run and maintain them. “If there was a jurisdiction issue, why did they provide an NOC?” the PWD official pointed out.
