Electricity bills are constantly on the rise in the state, and now another issue has arisen with the installation of smart meters. These meters are causing electricity bills to increase day by day, leading to further frustration among consumers. The state’s opposition party, Trinamool Congress, expressed strong opposition to this on Monday by staging a protest in front of the residence of the state’s Electricity Minister, Ratna Lal Nath.
The Trinamool Congress activists gathered in front of the minister’s house in Agartala and demanded immediate action to address the rising electricity bills and the issues with the installation of smart meters. They also accused the government of favoring private companies over the interests of the consumers.
The protest highlighted the growing discontent among the public over the rising electricity bills and the lack of transparency in the installation of smart meters. The Trinamool Congress has vowed to continue their fight against these issues and ensure that the concerns of the people are heard and addressed by the government.
The state government has yet to respond to the protest and the demands made by the opposition party. It remains to be seen how they will address these issues and alleviate the growing dissatisfaction among the consumers regarding their electricity bills and the implementation of smart meters.
