The general guide on RTI for electricity bill dispute covers the full template, decision steps, case law and FAQs. This page focuses on the Raipur-specific bits: which municipal department to file at, what fee mode Raipur Municipal Corporation accepts, the local portal (if any), and where to escalate within Chhattisgarh.

1. Identify the office. City DISCOM Sub-Division Officer of Raipur typically sits at Raipur Municipal Corporation headquarters or the relevant zonal office.
2. Pay the fee: Rs. 10 IPO/cash; check the Chhattisgarh hub for any state-specific fee.
