Arvind Kejriwal questions electricity rates in Uttarakhand
A day ahead of his visit in view of the elections in Uttarakhand, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday asked why can’t the people of the power generating state to get electricity free of cost like residents of the national capital.
CM Kejriwal’s attack on Uttarakhand government
Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, ‘Uttarakhand itself generates electricity, also sells it to other states. Then why such expensive electricity to the people of Uttarakhand? Delhi does not generate its own electricity, it buys it from other states. Yet electricity is free in Delhi. Shouldn’t the people of Uttarakhand get free electricity? See you tomorrow in Dehradun.
उत्तराखंड खुद बिजली बनाता है, दूसरे राज्यों को बेचता भी है।फिर उत्तराखंड के लोगों को इतनी महँगी बिजली क्यों?
दिल्ली अपनी बिजली नहीं बनाता,दूसरे राज्यों से ख़रीदता है।फिर भी दिल्ली में बिजली फ़्री
क्या उत्तराखंड वासियों को फ़्री बिजली नहीं मिलनी चाहिए?
कल देहरादून में मिलते हैं
