According to the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), a PDD consumer from Achnambal, Zafran Colony said that although he has completed all the previous dues on time, but suddenly he received a bill of Rs 16,923 for the months of June and July, thus leaving him in an utter shock.
“It is unfortunate that the PDD is issuing bills full of errors to its customers in the Valley,” he said, adding that the department is leaving its consumers to lurch.
