										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h4><strong>Bihar Free Electricity: There is a lot of discussion about the electricity bill in Bihar these days. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar made a big announcement on Thursday and said that now every family in the state will get electricity up to 125 units absolutely free.</strong></h4>
<p>That is, if a family uses electricity up to 125 units, then it will not have to pay a single rupee. About 1 crore 67 lakh families are going to get the direct benefit of this decision of the government. Before the elections, this is being considered as the &#8216;master stroke&#8217; of the Nitish government. Let us understand the complete calculation of the electricity bill in Bihar in simple language.</p>
<h4><strong>Who can avail the benefit of this scheme?</strong></h4>
<p>This free electricity scheme will be available to all sections of people. That is, it is not only for the poor or any particular section, but all domestic consumers will get its benefit.</p>
<h4><strong>When will the new electricity bill rules come into effect?</strong></h4>
<p>Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said that the new rule will come into effect from August 1, 2025, but its effect will be visible only from the bill of July. That is, this month you can use up to 125 units of electricity free of cost.</p>
<h4><strong>What will happen if 126 units of electricity are used?</strong></h4>
<p>The government has not yet clarified whether the full bill will have to be paid for using 126 units of electricity or only the additional unit. But it is believed that electricity will be free up to 125 units and the bill for units after that will be charged at the normal rate.</p>
<h4><strong>At what rate is the electricity bill now?</strong></h4>
<p>Currently, under the Kutir Jyoti Yojana, electricity is being provided at the rate of Rs 1.97 per unit to consumers in rural areas and Rs 2.52 per unit to other domestic consumers. In urban areas, this rate is Rs 7.57 per unit. But after the subsidy from the Bihar government, it is Rs 4.52 per unit.</p>
<h4><strong>Will the government also promote solar power?</strong></h4>
<p>The next step of the government is to promote solar energy. In the next 3 years, the government will take consent from every consumer and install solar panels on their roof or nearby public place. This will further strengthen the power supply.</p>
<h4><strong>Will the government also pay for the cost of solar panels?</strong></h4>
<p>Under the Kutir Jyoti Yojana, the government will bear the entire cost of installing solar panels for extremely poor families. Other people will also get financial assistance from the government.</p>
<p>The government&#8217;s goal is to generate up to 10,000 MW of solar energy in Bihar in the next three years.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Free Electricity:</strong> The Himachal Pradesh government has made it clear that the domestic electricity consumers of the state will continue to get free electricity up to 125 units per month as before. The government has released new rates of electricity subsidy, ending uncertainty and speculation on the issue.</p>
<div class="newadd newtopadd newcontainer clearfix">
<p>The state government has announced that around 22 lakh domestic consumers will continue to get subsidy. However, after the Electricity Regulatory Commission reduced the tariffs by 15 paise per unit, the subsidy amount has also been reduced slightly in the same proportion. However, the tariffs already fixed for 2024-25 will continue to be applicable this year as well.</p>
<p>Consumers who consume more than 300 units of electricity per month will no longer get any major relief. The government has removed the subsidy of ₹ 1 per unit being given to this category of consumers. Now these consumers will have to pay the full price of electricity at ₹ 5.90 per unit.</p>
<p>Energy Secretary Rakesh Kanwar has issued instructions to the Managing Director of the Electricity Board, Sandeep Kumar in this regard. According to the new orders, electricity bills for the consumption of the month of April will be issued in May as per these new rates.</p>
<h3><strong>Relief to commercial and industrial consumers</strong></h3>
<p>This time relief has been given not only to domestic but also to commercial and industrial consumers. Commercial rates have been reduced by 12 paise per unit and industrial rates by 20 paise per unit. However, no change has been made in the fixed demand charge.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Aadhaar Linking-Government is giving 100 units of electricity free. But, now only those consumers will get free electricity, who will link their electricity connection account with Aadhaar. The subsidy amount will come directly into the bank account of the customer.</strong></p>
<p>In Tamil Nadu, now only those consumers will get 100 units of free electricity in a month, who will link their electricity connection with Aadhaar number. After this announcement of the government, the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Company (TANGEDCO) has started linking the Aadhaar card of the consumers with their consumer number. But, now complaints are coming that customers are facing a lot of problems at the counters made for this purpose in TANGEDCO offices.</p>
<p>The Tamil Nadu government, which wants to complete this work in any case, has now ordered the officials of the electricity department that there should not be any inconvenience to the customers coming to connect the electricity connection with Aadhaar. A detailed guideline has been issued for this. Power Minister V Senthil Balaji had ordered the officials to make proper arrangements after inspecting a counter made in Chennai.</p>
<p><strong>Correct seating arrangement</strong></p>
<p>In the guidelines issued by the government, it has been said that there should be proper seating arrangement for the customers coming to the electricity offices to link Aadhaar and electricity connection. If the space is falling short, then a canopy should be installed. Not only this, TA/CA/CE level staff should be put on duty to monitor these counters. The complete process of Aadhaar linking should also be explained to the customers. Not only this, the government has also appointed an executive engineer to supervise the process of Aadhaar linking. If this work is slowing down or getting interrupted at any counter, SE will make additional arrangements to speed it up.</p>
<p><strong>Money will not be taken</strong></p>
<p>, if there are computers on the counter or if they are working slowly, then additional computers should be installed. The government has said that the work of Aadhaar linking should not be interrupted under any circumstances. The section officer has been given the responsibility to prevent corruption in the work of linking electricity connections with Aadhaar. Aadhaar-electricity connection is being linked free of cost.</p>
<p><strong>Counters have started from 28 November</strong></p>
<p>Government has started special counters from 28 November to link the electricity connection account with Aadhaar. Earlier the facility of online linking was given. But, in that many people were not able to link their account with Aadhaar due to lack of proper information. That&#8217;s why the government has started special counters for this work.</p>
