An electricity consumer in Noakhali faced a massive billing error after receiving a statement for September showing a charge of Tk1.1 lakh. The bill claimed a consumption of 6,000 units, which stood in stark contrast to the consumer's average usage of 187 units over the preceding five months. Following a review, the bill was adjusted to Tk1,238, and the staff member responsible for the error has been withdrawn.
