BENGALURU: Much against the usual demand of electricity supply corporations (Escoms) to hike the power tariff, the state government is contemplating on proposing to the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) to reduce the power tariff by 70 paise to Rs 2.10 per unit, across the state. Understandably, the proposal is being made ahead of the assembly elections which are a few months away and also comes in the backdrop of the recently held Global Investors Meet and Bengaluru Tech Summit which laid stress on the generation of green energy.
