Imphal, April 12 2011:
All Manipur Power Consumers� Association has demanded repairing of all the transformers in unserviceable condition within 48-hour, to allow clearance of electricity due bills of the consumer on installment and dispatching of bills to the consumers on monthly basis.
Addressing a press conference held at Manipur Press Club today, K Sanatomba, secretary of the recently founded body asked the reason behind the government stern action against the consumers who could not clear due bills even though the department is not able to provide adequate power supply to the consumers.
Before disconnecting the lines for not clearing bills, power department should give 15 days time to the consumer to clear the due bills.
The drive of disconnecting the line without giving enough time to clear the due bill is not a right thing to do.
