Delhi News: After the return of BJP to power in Delhi, this statement of Power Minister Ashish Sood is a big setback for Delhiites. If electricity prices are increased, the common man will have to face heavy electricity bills due to increased power consumption in summer. This may increase the economic pressure especially on the middle and low income group families, who are already struggling with rising inflation and other expenses.
this move has come before
However, this move has come before the upcoming budget, and it can be linked to the financial condition of the state government and other reasons, but this decision can be worrying for the people of Delhi. In such a situation, it has to be seen what kind of measures and relief packages the government introduces regarding its decision, so that the impact on the general public is minimal.
This statement of Ashish Sood points to the current situation of Delhi and the decisions of the previous government, in which he said that the previous AAP government left a debt of 27 thousand crores, which is now owed to the Discoms (power distribution companies). As a result, the current government has to increase electricity prices, so that this debt can be recovered.
This controversy over the electricity tariff of the Delhi government has become more complicated because at this time the burden of increased electricity rates is going to fall on the general public, which is already struggling with inflation. This statement of Ashish Sood is clearly criticizing the previous AAP government, saying that they did not take care of the interests of the public properly.
This situation can also become
This situation can also become politically complicated, because now the BJP government will be held accountable for this increased electricity rates, and efforts are being made to hold the AAP government responsible for this.
The BJP had promised to give 300
The BJP had promised to give 300 units of electricity free in its Sankalp Patra during the Delhi Assembly elections, but now even after a month has passed, this promise has not been implemented. The BJP government has not given any official information about this till now, due to which confusion and disappointment has increased among the people of Delhi regarding this promise.
The opposition
The opposition, especially the Aam Aadmi Party, is on the offensive against the CM over this issue and accuses the BJP government of failing to fulfill its election promises. This political controversy can escalate further as failure to fulfill election promises can lead to a loss of public trust in the government.
will be interesting to see
It will be interesting to see how the BJP government handles this situation and whether it implements its promise of giving 300 units of free electricity soon or postpones it under some other scheme.
