Dear guides,  
Help me how file a complaint against MSEB.  
I have been using the gala for one hour since April 2025 till may 2025 . Paying the bill amounts regularly online. I have been using 2 led lights and one celling fan . One AC which is used for half an hour, 20 days a month. It’s quite impossible to be charged with this high amount. The bill amount never exceeded ₹1200.
