Electric shock: Electricity will become costlier by 5.9% in Jharkhand, there will be a direct impact on the pocket.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Now the people of Jharkhand are going to get another shock. Jharkhand Electricity Distribution Corporation Limited i.e. JBVNL has proposed to increase the electricity rates. There is news that now electricity in the state may become costlier by 5.9 percent.

This news will have a direct impact on the pockets of the common man. This increase in electricity bill will really create another problem for the people who are facing the brunt of inflation. JBVNL has cited several reasons behind this increase, which include increase in the cost of power generation and distribution.

After this announcement of JBVNL, the electricity consumers of the state are very worried. He says that the electricity bill is already high and in such a situation, if the rates increase further, it will become even more difficult to manage the household budget.

However, the final decision on this proposal has not been taken yet, but if this increase is implemented then electricity consumers in Jharkhand will have to shell out money. It remains to be seen what stance the government and the Electricity Regulatory Commission take on this and whether the general public gets some relief from this increasing burden or not.
