The BJP today termed the hike in power tariff as an anti-people decision. It criticised the Congress government for allegedly failing to fulfil the promise of providing 300 units free power to people.
Reacting to the 22 per cent hike in power tariff, state BJP’s chief spokesperson and MLA Randhri Sharma said the Congress had deceived the people with false promises. “Contrary to the promises made to the people at the time of the Assembly elections, the Congress is continuing to burden the common man. First, it hiked the diesel price by Rs 3 and now there’s a hike in power tariff,” he said.
