Exactly one after taking over Punjab, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government on Saturday morning that is 16th of April 2022 made a big announcement giving free electricity to every household in the state.

Beginning 1st of July 2022, all residents in Punjab will get 300 units of free power supply.

Mann had met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal earlier on Tuesday to discuss the scheme of providing free electricity to the people of Punjab and indicated, in a press conference, that the State government can make a big announcement soon.
“On the 16th (April), we will give great good news to the people of Punjab,” Bhagwant Mann had said.
Providing free electricity to every household for up to 300 units is one of the major promises made by AAP in Punjab in the recently concluded assembly elections in the state.

It may be recalled that in Delhi, the AAP government provides 200 units of free electricity.
Earlier, Mann rolled out a doorstep ration delivery scheme in the state last month which was also AAP’s key campaign agenda in the polls.
