The Chief Minister of Punjab has announced a significant reduction of Rs. 14 per unit in electricity rates for consumers in Punjab and Islamabad who use between 201 and 500 units. This relief, which is the largest-ever, will apply to the electricity bills for August and September. The Punjab Government will cover the cost, amounting to Rs. 45 billion, by cutting official expenses and development funds to ease the financial burden on the public. The initiative emphasizes that making life easier for the people is a top priority for the government.
