Proposal on electricity tariff hike to meet Cabinet today

Date:

The proposal on the most argued electricity tariff hike is set to be presented at the Cabinet of Ministers today (09).

The proposed tariff hike, which has already met with a severe backlash from a number of parties, including civil movements, political parties in the Opposition and those of the Electricity Field, was presented to the Cabinet last week, and it was concluded that a final decision be made in this regard a week after, hence the tabling today.

Accordingly, it is believed that a final decision be made in this regard today.

The proposed electricity tariff hike demonstrates an increase in the amount of money charged per power unit and the fixed tariff.
