The Punjab Government has decided to reimburse telephone bills online directly in the bank accounts of its employees/officers, streamlining the total process.

A spokesman of the Punjab Government today said that earlier telephone bills was paid via cheques and drafts, which would now be paid through online. He said that all the officers posted at Punjab Civil Secretariat has been asked to submit their telephone bills, at least one week prior to its due date so the bills could be reimbursed to them in given time.  

He said that it was imperative for the concerned officer to get the name and address on telephone bill corrected from telephone service provider so that there was no difficulty in processing the reimbursement bill. He said that if any telephone connection has been cut down due to the late receiving of bill, then the personal staff of the concerned officer would be held responsible for that. 

He said that the bills sent for reimbursement must mention the name, designation, address, bank account, IFCS code of the bank, address of the bank, mobile and PAN card number of the concerned officer so that amount could be directly credited in the bank account of the concerned employee/officer.
