Punjab houses get 300 units of free power, pending arrears till Dec waived

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said his government is fulfilling a guarantee made to people of the state as from Friday each household will be getting 300 units of free electricity every month.

Mann said the government has also waived arrears of electricity bills pending till December 31, 2021 of all households.

He said there was some confusion among people that arrears of up to 2 KW were waived but it is being clarified that pending electricity bills of all connections till December 31, 2021 have been waived by his government.

The AAP government had earlier announced giving 300 units of free power to every household from July 1.
