Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] — Claiming payment for disconnected connection number ten years ago

Sir,

I have received a letter dated 02.12.2021 from assistant executive engineer Rayapuram Tirupur. Connection No: [protected] for which the above said office instructing me to pay the sum of Rs.12860.00 . Please note i have applied for permanent disconnection for the above said connection on 31.07.2012 and subsequently the said office has disconnected and the meter has been removed from the premises on the same day and thereby understood that the connection were disconnected based on my application and there was no payment due for the said connection until the disconnection was made.

Sir, I am surprised and shocked to received the letter from the said office asking me to pay the bill after 10 years!

I feel that it is unfair to make such claim after 10 years when the connection were promptly disconnected after my due request. Therefore i kindly request you to look in to this matter and please withdraw the claim and close the matter without any charges and penalty.

Thank you for your kind understanding.

Kindly find herewith enclosed the copy of the letter received from the said office and my reply letter to them.

Thanks and Best Regards
G. Loganathan
