With government buildings across the State not having paid electricity bills to the tune of ₹5,792 crore, the State government plans to install prepaid electricity meters in all government offices, Energy Minister V. Sunil Kumar informed the Legislative Assembly on Thursday.
The objective of installation of prepaid meters is to reform the power sector and trim expenditure. Prepaid meters would also be installed in buildings under construction and receive temporary connections in all Amruth cities to generate revenue, the Minister said during the question hour.
“This is a preliminary thought. There are bill-related problems in government offices and the financial burden is increasing for us. A final decision will be taken after consultation with experts in the sector,” Mr. Kumar said.
