Bijli Satyagarha in Punjab- Congress Demands Choongi Abolition

Industrialists of Jalandhar and other Paid Consumers of Electricity in Punjab have proposed a Bijli Satyagraha . The payment of Electricity Bills would be stopped..

Retrospective Increase in Electricity Rates ( before Assembly Elections ) is violation of Model Code of Conduct. People are demanding Fresh Elections and Declaration of Previous Elections as Null and Void.

Congress leaders Gurjit Singh Rana and Virender Sharma have demanded abolition of Choongi ( Octroi ) from the Electricity Bills of Urban Consumers.

Choongi ( Octroi ) has been abolished in Punjab but it continues to be levied oin Electricity Bills of Urban Punjabis .

Congress is holding a Massive  Dharna in Jalandhar ( Opp DC Office ) against the Ruinous Electricity Policies of the Govt.
