We are hearing people committing suicides due to the incendary bills thrown at them this month while many cities are blocked and witnessing massive protests against electricity prices. The average unit price has reached nearly 60 rupees and it will reach up to 90 rupees if the reports are to be believed. People cannot afford food or to pay their bills anymore and life is getting more and more difficult for everyone.
The electricity prices have become sky high due to the IPP projects of the previous government and now with the IMF deal and economic mismanagement, even the most privileged are crying and are not able to easily afford the tariffs. Nadia Kahn asked her celebrity friends and even the A lister celebrities cannot afford the bills anymore.
Sadia Imam shared that her electricity bill was 67000 and she has now converted her house to solar energy as the prices are insane. She still got a 19000 bill after converting her house to solar.
Nida Yasir revealed that she was not at her home for half a month as the whoel famil went for vacations and she still got 1 lakh rupees bill. Now, she is trying to control the energy consumption as much as she can and even converting to solar is difficult as it is very expensive.
