Harassment to Senior Citizens by Delhi Jal Board

Central Govt., Delhi State Govt. and other Departments launch various laxity plans for the Senior Citizens. Finance Deptt. exempts the Senior Citizens in Income Tax upto Rs. 2,50,000/-, which is exempted upto Rs. 5,00,000/- in case of Super Seniors like me. Delhi Police extends special security and certain Banks provide the services at their door steps for Senior Citizens. 

BUT, PERHAPS, DELHI JAL BOARD HAVE DECIDED TO HARRAS THE SENIORS.

I, am 86 year old person, living alone with my wife 80 years in B3A/58—A, Janakpuri, New Delhi. Our water meter connection No. is J-6049.  This meter is stopped for decades and the bill was raised on average @ 7 K.L. per month upto January 2011.  From March 2011 the consumption rate was increased to 8 K.L. per month arbitrarily. Surprisingly the consumption was raised to 20 K.L. per month from March, 2012. 

We have no servant, no conveyance and no reason to waste water. The rise in average consumption is not understood. Your Zone is not prepared to listen. The defective meter is to be replaced by Department and not me.

You are requested to direct the Zonal Revenue Officer, Janakpuri to amend the bills, wrongly raised. We always pay in advance.

We are eagerly awaiting your reply.
