A man in Jamshedpur was in for a shock when he received an electricity bill of R38 billion yesterday.
The Jharkhand Electricity Board handed BR Guha the non-payment of the bill, following which electricity was disconnected from his home.
Guha said, "It came as a surprise to us. We didn't anticipate this. Our house has three rooms. We use three fans, three tubelights and sometimes, we watch the TV. How can we have such a huge bill? This is so ridiculous."
Reacting to the bill, Guha's daughter Ratna Biswas said, "My mother is a blood sugar patient and my father suffers from high pressure. The bill had rendered us completely helpless. It was only after our neighbours intervened that we were able to do anything.
They accompanied us to the electricity department office yesterday."
A complaint has been lodged against the Board and matters are being looked into.
