The residents of Corona Optus in Sector 37C have sought police intervention in a dispute pertaining to alleged inflated bills. The residents want the maintenance agency to stop charging extra on electricity bills and return the extra amount collected from the residents for the past three years.
The residents said they got possession of the flats in January 2017 and began paying Rs. 9.34/unit as electricity charges to the agency, whereas the actual charge per unit should be not more than Rs. 5.94/unit, as per the electricity norms of the Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN).
A group of 20 residents of the society had visited the Sector 10 police station to lodge a complaint on Sunday. “A complaint has been filed by Corona Optus residents and matter will be investigated,” said a police official privy to the matter.
