"power-bills"

Several schools across State continue to receive power bills, raising questions about the government's commitment to its decision

On July 1, the TGSPDCL and TGNPDCL stopped accepting electricity bill payments through payment gateways and banks, including UPI apps.

Bills worth Rs.769 crore are pending and despite its efforts to collect the pending bills, the CESS is unable to reach its target.

Keeping the security aspect in mind, we have decided not to issue QR codes along with the power bills, say officials

At a few centres, officials distributed the forms free of cost but instructed the people to present local residence identification proof.
