Ranchi: The Jharkhand government on Wednesday decided to increase the limit of free electricity to 125 units from the existing 100 units per month for domestic consumers.
In a review meeting with senior officials including the chief secretary, Chief Minister Champai Soren directed the energy department to prepare a proposal in this regard.
“Consumers will now be given free power up to 125 units, instead of the existing 100 units,” an official release quoted him as saying.
The state government started the ‘100-unit free electricity’ scheme in 2022 with an aim to reduce financial burden of the people.
