Updated: [falahcoin_post_modified_date]

The BJP has criticized the Karnataka government’s decision to raise power tariffs, calling it a betrayal of the Congress party’s promises to provide free electricity to its constituents. BJP National Spokesperson Sehzad Poonawala stated that instead of fulfilling their manifesto promise of five freebies, the Congress government has instituted restrictions on the electricity assistance scheme. Under the new regulations, only domestic households and not commercial establishments will be eligible for the assistance. The government will consider 12 months of average energy consumption in the 2022-23 financial year to give free electricity up to 10% more than the average usage. If the usage exceeds 200 units of power, however, the consumer will have to pay the full bill. Consumers must enroll in the ‘Seva Sindhu’ portal of the state government to access the benefits.
