Load revision covers 20L smart meter users out of 46.68L; UPPCL says status of some BPL consumers exceeding 1 kw will change
Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Ltd (UPPCL) has justified revising electricity loads for over 46 lakh consumers, citing adherence to the Electricity Supply Code. This move, affecting some smart meter users, aims to align sanctioned loads with actual usage. However, consumer groups allege violations of central policies and potential financial burdens, particularly for BPL households whose subsidies may be impacted by increased load limits.
