Channi admitted yesterday by saying he only wanted consumers to get a reduced electricity bill.
Even Navjot Sidhu has exposed his own government that says the SOP is only given For 2 months to cheat the voters.
The objection raised by Sidhu has also left the door open to the Congress party to express this promise “.

Talking about the government’s intention to bring the resolution to cancel PPA with private thermal plants, he said if the government intends to do this, it must come out with the executive command instead of a resolution that won’t achieve anything.
“The government must take into account the punishment of around Rs 10,000 Crore to be paid and the challenge of obtaining 4,000 megawatts of power at the same level or cheaper.
The current trace of the government does not inspire confidence.
This has bought power at a rate between Rs 12 to RS 15 per The unit when has a captive power plant that has been bound to supply power down rs 3 per unit “.
