The Jammu and Kashmir government is reviewing a proposal to extend its power amnesty scheme, which allows domestic consumers to settle outstanding electricity bills without penalties.
The Jammu and Kashmir government has announced that it is examining a proposal to extend its power amnesty scheme for domestic consumers.
The scheme, which was introduced earlier this year, permits households to clear outstanding electricity bills without incurring late‑payment penalties or additional charges.
Officials say the extension would provide relief to consumers who have struggled to keep up with payments during the pandemic and economic slowdown.
The government is currently reviewing the proposal and will decide whether to broaden the scheme’s duration and eligibility criteria.
