Raj Thackeray-led Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has raised objections to the private discom Reliance Energy using Gujarati language in the electricity bills issued to its customers in the megapolis.

The MNS, in a letter issued to the company, demanded that since Marathi is the official language in the state, the electricity bills should be issued only in that language along with English and not in any other language.
In the letter, MNS vice president Nayan Kadam said the power company should not be under the impression that BJP winning more seats means such linguistic domination will be accepted. He also said that controversy based on linguistic issues should be avoided.

When contacted, Reliance Energy spokesperson said the company has been giving four language billing options- Marathi, Hindi, English and Gujarati-- to its customers ever since it got distribution licence in the city. "Since 2005, we have been giving four language options- Marathi, Hindi, English and Gujarati- to our customers. We even provide the billing option in the Braille.
