1.75L farmers await free power for years; only 15,000 connections given in 2024-25 fiscal
The Tamil Nadu Electricity Board has provided 15,000 free electricity connections for agricultural purposes during the 2024-25 financial year, states an RTI reply. This figure is well short of the government's promise of 50,000 free connections. P Venkadachalamurthy, an executive committee member of the farmers' association, was provided with the reply by TNPGCL under the RTI Act. He alleged that the government's announcement on providing free electricity connections to farmers was not fully executed.
