Following the promise of 200 units of free electricity by the Bharatiya Janata Party in its election manifesto to the voters of West Bengal, a similar demand has been raised by the power consumers of Uttar Pradesh.
The UP Power Consumer Forum has demanded the state government to implement this first in UP as the BJP is in power in the state for the last four years.
The BJP, in its election Sankalp Patra has also offered that no fixed charges will be levied on the new industrial units for six months and power tariff for the small and medium industries will be Rs 2 per unit for five years.
