Dear sir
I, Dashrath Kumar Sharma, have been residing in Faridabad & availing the services of Dakshin Haryana Vitran Nigam (DHVN).
In October, 2012 my meter had burnt because of which the electricity supply was cut. I had given written complaint to Mr. N.P. Singh Rana J.E. of Electricity office, Sarai, Faridabad. Complaint no. Or receiving copy of the complaint was not provided. After 10 days personnel from electricity department had visited my house & inspected the meter. He confirmed that the meter is faulty. After innumerable visits to the electricity office, new meter was installed in June, 2013. I received a bill in August, 2013 amounting to Rs. 23, 690/- which shows the old reading as 2146 and new reading as 0. My monthly electricity consumption is approx. Rs. 600/- then how was I given such a inflated bill. I was not in a position to pay such a hefty bill and the electricity personnel had cut the electricity on 2-Sep-2013 due to non-payment of bill.
New connection was provided & re-filing was done, which was not necessary as only faulty meter had to be replaced. I had made a payment of around Rs. 3000/- to the various employees but received receipt of only Rs. 790/-
I am working as a carpenter & my daily wages are Rs. 200 per day. I had to take leave from my work to visit the electricity office innumerable times (10 times in a month for 9 months)
For 9 months, I was surviving without any electricity in my home.
After installing the new meter, I received such a hefty bill. Electricity consumption in my house is limited to one fan & one light.
Would request you to look into the matter as neither am I am entitled to pay such a hefty bill nor can I afford it.
