Maharashtra Electricity Bill Scam on Lockdown.
Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) On June made a scam of giving high bills to the customer, not only to HT but also LT customer who is a residential customer the customer whose last March, April and May bill of 2019 was not above 600₹ but they have paid the same amount of bill in March, April and May Bill on average of 500₹-580₹ because due to COVID MSEDCL was not able to take a reading but on June they have taken reading without any reading photos they have charged the customer 4 times they get a bill for 4200₹. And without any proof, they say the reading is correct and the amount the customer paid in March, April and May is also not deducted from the June bill. They have made bill so arduous that the common person would not get the deduction calculation. Not only that as we see in Mumbai that the everyday price of petrol rises 0.50 paise to 1₹.
There are around lakhs of customer who got this kind of Bill as we know that due to coronavirus people were stuck in the home if we calculated the double the energy utilization then also the bill which they passed is not acceptable and they say according to them the bill is Correct and high due to a tariff duty which got changed in April 2020. So the Customer has to pay the bill which they got if they want to check the Bill how they charged then click on MSEDCL . And as the news leaked that electricity bill for June is charged more than 5-7 times the normal they are giving the facility of paying a bill in Installment But have to pay. You have also noticed that the NEWS of Electricity is not spread on TV and News because it will heat up the situation. As on March, they have said that they are going to give free electricity for people in Maharashtra up to 100 units. But it Seems that was Dreams and you have literally tortured to pay a huge amount of bill.
