What is Bijli Mitra App?

Jaipur Discom had introduced the Bijli Mitra app to make paying electricity bills extremely easy and convenient. Earlier, a lot of people procrastinated and didn’t deposit bills on time, causing loss of revenue to the department. But now using the Bijali Mitra app, one can make the payment with a single click from the comfort of his or her home.

You can use the app to know the total usage of units every month and history of all the power bills you have paid. In this way, you will know how much power your house or office consumed and when you made the payment for the bills and how much.

You can also use the app to make complaint about power theft or inflated bills.

You can apply for a new connection or surrendering your existing power connection. You can also apply for increasing load or changing the name on the bill. You can also connect multiple connections in your name and access all these features at one place.
