Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia on Friday said making electricity tariffs flexible like the prices of petrol and diesel will prove “dangerous”, and advocated that the “Delhi model” should be adopted across the country.
“If the rates of electricity will be decided on the basis of fluctuations in rates of other commodities, then the prices of electricity will also go sky high and will impact the common people,” Sisodia said in Udaipur on Friday where he was attending a meeting of state power and energy ministers.
The meeting was convened by the Centre which was also attended by senior officials of electricity departments and representatives of state electricity commissions.
