Rs 84 lakh power bills not paid on time, two firms booked

Jhajjar, July 5

The police have booked Omaxe City and Shanvi Management Services Limited on charges of fraud on the complaint of the president of Residents Welfare Association Royal Street Omaxe City-2, Bahadurgarh.

Dharmendra Singh Dhillon, president, said Omaxe City had deployed Shanvi Management Service Limited to collect cash from the residents to pay their bills as power was supplied through a meter to over 200 people residing there.

“The firm used to collect money but did not deposit it with the UHBVN on time. The power bill of Rs 84 lakh is due on Omaxe City. Subsequently, the UHBVN disconnected the power supply several times during the past month,” said Dhillon.

Denying the charges, Lavnish Saxena, sales manager, Omaxe City, said, “There is some technical issue due to Covid in paying the bill. As much as Rs 22 lakh has been paid while the remaining dues will also be paid soon.” — TNS
