The whole nation has been in lockdown since March 24th,2020 in order to curb the spread of the Covid-19 infections. As the number of infections is rising the situation seems to be risky and uncertain also causing restrictions in movement.
With the lockdown into effect, the NEA meter readers are unable to visit everyone’s home. So in light of the current situation, NEA has recently resorted to an online meter reading facility that is made available to the public. With the online meter reading facility, the people will be able to check their electricity bill themselves and then pay digitally with Khalti for the actually consumed electricity! How easy is that?
Having said that, there is no way you can avoid the surging electricity bills but you can surely avoid going out, read the electricity meter, know the actually consumed electricity and pay it digitally with Khalti that too at the comfort of your home. All you need is a mobile, laptop, tablet, or any other device and you are all set!
