Recently twenty four consumers were arrested for unpaid electric bills and illegal usage of electricity during widespread raids conducted by the Manipur State Power Distribution Company Ltd (MSPDCL) officers and staff across Imphal East, Imphal West, Thoubal, Kakching and Bishnupur districts. As per a statement issued by the Executive Director of MSPDCL, one was arrested from Napet Palli area, one from Tera Sayang area, six from Thangmeiband Tarung, two from Thangmeiband Sinam Leikai, one from Babupara, two from Lilong, five from Wangjing, two from Yairipok and four from Kodompokpi Lamkhai area making it more clear.
In reality MSPDCL has disconnected the electricity connections of these twenty four consumers. More drives will be carried out in the near future to detect and clamp down on unauthorized power usage, said the statement. This step taken by MSPDCL is very correct as illegal usage of electricity is very bad and it actually shows that we need to be more educated so that we learn to live in a good society.
