i biswajit panda S/o prafulla panda, my electricity connection disconnected from-23/07/24 We are suffering a dark life. we complaint again and again but no response. The TPWODL Said the resign , your bill is due. In march we pay 62000/- and this month also paid. but they say you must pay the total arrear then the power supply in done . we have the balance amount of 66000/- then what i do please suggest me.

Dear @biswajit_panda,

If you have already paid â‚ą62,000 and the bill for this month totals â‚ą66,000, please submit a written complaint letter to the Executive Engineer of the divisional office requesting re-connection and a rebate on the billing amount or an extension for paying the remaining arrear.

I suggest you to prefer to visit the TPWODL’s divisional office the next day and submit your written appeal application to the designated head officer with a receipt of the paid bill.

Additionally, you can file a public grievance with the Department of Energy through the “Jan Sunani - Public Grievance Redressal” portal of the government of Odisha.
