New Delhi: Those who pay their electricity bills do not deserve Government subsidy. Power subsidies have, however, been given in areas notorious for electricity thefts. In a move to encourage power theft, the Delhi Government has decided to give subsidy to consumers of slum areas. It seems that the Congress-ruled Delhi Government has gone into poll mode with Assembly election due next year as also the possibility of mid-term Lok Sabha polls.
