<h1>Chief Minister announces free electricity up to 125 units for domestic consumers starting August 1</h1> The Chief Minister announced free electricity up to 125 units for all domestic consumers in the state, benefiting 1.67 crore households effective August 1. This populist measure comes ahead of assembly elections, with the announcement made via social media. The policy means no charges will apply for the first 125 units in July bills onward. The Chief Minister, who has long advocated for uniform national electricity tariffs, cited high grid electricity costs as justification. This move appears to counter the opposition leader's promise of 200 units of free electricity. Additionally, the Chief Minister promoted solar power development, targeting 10,000 MW production over three years through the state-funded scheme that includes installing solar panels at public places and on poor households' rooftops with consent.
