Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma today said that the state government has successfully resolved 57 of the 60 complaints concerning power bills.
In view of the anguish of consumers due to faulty power tariffs in the state, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has urged consumers to send complaints to the CM office directly.
The CM office received a total of 60 complaints so far. 57 out of the 60 complaints have successfully been resolved, said CM Sarma.
