According to reports, on receiving such a high bill, Sanjeev went to the authorities and lodged his complaint, after which the Madhya Pradesh government-run power company termed it a human error and later issued a correct bill of Rs 1,300.
Power company officials said that our employee had entered the customer’s registered number instead of the units used in the software, resulting in a higher bill.
According to Indian media, Energy Minister Pardeoman Singh says that the mistake has been rectified while the action is being taken against the concerned employee.
