Power generation in Jammu and Kashmir has dipped, causing a halt in the rollout of 200 free electricity units for AAY households.
Jammu and Kashmir’s power generation has fallen below expected levels, according to the state’s electricity board. The shortfall has directly impacted the launch of a government initiative that was set to provide 200 free electricity units to AAY households.
The scheme, aimed at easing the energy burden on low‑income families, was scheduled to begin earlier this month. However, the reduced output from the state’s power plants has forced officials to postpone the distribution until supply stabilises.
State officials have assured residents that steps are being taken to increase generation capacity and that the free units will be rolled out as soon as the power deficit is resolved. They urged affected households to remain patient and to continue using electricity responsibly.
The government has also announced that it will monitor the situation closely and will provide updates through official channels. Residents can expect a formal announcement once the power supply is back on track.
