Additional Advocate General (AAG) P.H. Arvindh Pandian on Monday informed the Madras High Court that Tangedco might extend the deadline for payment of electricity bills, since the Centre as well as the State had extended the lockdown till May 31.
The submission was made before Justices M. Sathyanarayanan and Anita Sumanth during the hearing of a public interest litigation petition filed by advocate C. Rajashekaran who insisted that domestic consumers, huts and farmers as well as micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) be given time till July 31 to settle bills.
The judges adjourned the hearing to June 8.
