Dhanbad, Correspondent: More than 2.5 lakh electricity consumers did not receive their bills in November. People are upset because of this. Dhanbad Area Board has more than 5.7 lakh connections. In December, all consumers will receive electricity bills for three to four months together. If the bills are more than this, people will face problems in paying them.
All the Urja Mitras of Dhanbad and Chas Circle under Dhanbad Area Board were on strike from 1st October to 20th November demanding payment of honorarium for August and September. Not a single Urja Mitra prepared the bill for 50 days. Due to this, billing was completely stalled. The departmental employee took the meter reading. Bills were generated from the headquarters and a message of the bill was sent to the mobile of the consumers, which the department later had to cancel because all the bills were wrong. Here, after the payment of honorarium, the Urja Mitras returned to work and all the Urja Mitras started making bills from 21-30 November. 100% bills could not be made in ten days. Due to this, consumers will now get bills of three-four months together. If the amount is more, people will have to face various problems in making the payment.
All consumers will get electricity bills in the month of December. Those whose Urja Mitra did not come to make the bill, such people should take a photo of the unit in the meter and send it to the mobile of the Executive and Assistant Engineer of their area. This will send the electricity bill of the consumers.
