Press Release - World Consumer Rights Day 2021
CAG, in partnership with Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW), and supported by Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation has conducted a study on using the electricity bill as an enabling mechanism to improve information disclosure and promote greater public participation in the electricity sector. This Tamil Nadu Case Study captures consumers’ perception of electricity bill formats, awareness of bill elements and their expectations from a model bill, and in-turn recommends redesigning of Tamil Nadu’s electricity bill format based on consumer feedback
Presentations by speakers Mr. Rajesh Kumar, Centre for Financial Accountability, Mr. Ashish Fernandes, Climate Risk Horizon, and Mr. Niraj Bhatt, CAG, during the webinar on the 'The status of coal financing in India' on the 22nd/23rd of Feb, 2021.
For several years, Tamil Nadu has been faring poorly in road safety, leading other states in fatalities and road crashes or coming close to. However, the data on this is not readily available to the public. The only sources of information are the yearly reports by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB). These, of course, give only a broad state-level view.
