Sopore: The residents of Krankshivan Colony in Sopore area of north Kashmir’s Baramulla district on Friday complained of receiving exorbitant bills for the month of January.
The residents alleged that they were shocked after receiving bills ranging over Rs 5,000 for the month of January as against the Rs 1,000, which they used to pay.
