The CM office received a total of 60 complaints so far. 57 out of the 60 complaints have successfully been resolved, said CM Sarma.

It may be mentioned here that in Assam, the power department has installed smart pre-paid meters mostly in the urban areas.

However, since the pre-paid meters were installed, consumers have been complaining about receiving inflated power bills.
