AIADMK cadre, led by MLA Sellur K. Raju, staged a protest here on Tuesday condemning the DMK’s government’s recent announcement on increase in electricity tariff hike.
Addressing the protesters, he said, “The tariff for 200 units in AIADMK government, which was ₹ 170, has been increased to ₹ 225 in 2022 and ₹ 235 in 2023 and now it is again increased.”
Though the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board (TNEB) has witnessed ₹35,000-crore profit, why it is still buying electricity for higher cost from private payers, he asked.
