Ruling-party senator Abid Sher Ali asked in the Senate why someone consuming 201 units should pay the 400-unit slab rate. He said using just one unit beyond 200 raises the tariff from Rs15 to Rs30, burdening poor households for six months. He also accused electricity distribution companies of increasing billed units and getting cases registered against poor consumers. Disclaimer: Prices shown are estimates for illustration only.
