Environment Support Group wrote to BESCOM to lodge a complaint regarding an electrical voltage spike that we experienced in June 2003 and again in November 2003 and requested for compensation. In an article in the Sunday Times of India, 8/6/2003, it was suggested that we can receive compensation for damages resulting from high-voltage spikes from BESCOM. The voltage surge damaged a UPS, computer and a printer and damages to the extent of Rs 40,000/- were incurred.
