Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] — delaying new connection and bribe

Respected sir,
This is satheesh from vridhachalam. I applied for two new eb connections from vridhachalam poodhamur eb office on june 2017.
Later we received a call from eb person named seenu and he said, ci (Mr. Stalin) is asking money to give connection. For two eb connections (One three phase, one single phase), my father and myself paid 13000 rupees to mr. Seenu.

15 days later, i received a call from eb and said "your meter is ready, come with 800 rupees" like that. Then i paid 1000 rupees to mr. Mohan raj (Line man). However finally they fixed three phase meter on july 2017.

And i asked several times about single phase connection, they replied that"meter not available".
After continuous follow up with ci (Stalin), on 9th august received a call from foreman and he said "meter is ready, come and collect". The same day i went there to eb office met mr. Seenu. He said, you go to home... By evening we come for fixing.

Up to 15th august nobody has come. Then i went to work at oman on 16th august.

Now i asked my wife to enquire about meter, she asked them... They replied that we can't fix the meter unless your husband comes to eb office. She replied them "he is in oman" like that. Until today we are waiting for them to come to fix the meter.

We doesn't know the eb rules and regulations, being a poor people we have spent lot of money on getting eb connections. Spending money also ok, but we are not getting proper response and service from the eb employees.

I met several times ae, ci, foreman and line man in last 70 days (June 5th to august 15)... I feel more dehydrated because of my eb connection.

I am kindly requesting you to look after the issue.

As i believed the systems of eb, so i didn't noted application number and i doesn't have any evidence for money paid to eb persons.

I am looking for your favorable reply.

Thanks and regards
Satheesh. P
Vridhachalam
