Smart Meter Nightmare: Koderma Man Receives Rs 94,000 Electricity Bill

• Ishwar Sharma, a salon owner in Koderma, received an electricity bill of over Rs 94,000 after not receiving bills for seven months.
• Before the smart meter installation, his monthly bills were typically Rs 500-700, which he paid regularly.
• Sharma alleges the smart meter reading is incorrect or there's a technical flaw, as he hasn't used that much electricity.
• Despite complaining, the electricity department has not resolved the issue, sending him to different counters and citing system updates.
• Many consumers have previously reported issues with smart meters, including incorrect bills and faulty readings, but no concrete action has been taken.
