New Delhi:

The Delhi BJP today staged protests at discom offices across the city, demanding relief for consumers from "huge" power bills being sent to them for the coronavirus lockdown period.

Party leaders and its MPs from Delhi participated in the protests and demanded consumers be provided waiver on the fixed charges.

"Shops and offices were closed and all business activities were shut during the lockdown.
