Electricity meter transfer to owners' name from builder's name requires 1250 Rs. 'chai-pani'
When I initiated transfer of electricity meter in my name from the builder name for my newly bought apartment, the electricity dept - junior engineer, who came for inspection of the site, asked for 1250/- Rs. When refused, he started demanding documents like Khata, Encumberance certificate etc. which are irrelevant and not required.
After a lot of heated arguments and a fake refernce to the chief of the elctricity company (BESCOM) worked well to scare the junior engineer and he straight away signed the report.
