The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) today disconnected nine connections to the offices of the Municipal Council (MC) in Hansi town for default in the payment of electricity bills.
The DHBVN officials said the MC office had power dues of Rs 27.5 lakh on these nine connections, installed in various offices of the MC premises. After the civic body failed to deposit the arrears against the power bills, the Nigam officials disconnected these connections today.
Moreover, the MC had total power arrear of Rs 1.13 crore on 37 power connections installed in the MC office, which included the nine connections which were disconnected today.
