Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced on Wednesday that Delhiites can avail the benefits of the free electricity scheme from October only if they opt for it by giving a missed call on the phone number 7011311111.
After giving the missed call, the consumers will receive a message with a link and by clicking on it, they will get the form.
However, within hours of the announcement, a controversy erupted over the language used in the form that requires to be filled for availing the benefit. The form, which is in the Devanagari script, is an application addressed to the Chief Minister. The pre-written application form mentions that the applicant will be “highly obliged” if the subsidy is continued further.
