AAP to oppose electricity Bill: Bhagwant Singh Mann

New Delhi, July 22

Punjab AAP president and MP Bhagwant Singh Mann on Thursday said his party will oppose the Electricity Amendment Bill-2021 in Parliament because the proposed law was against the interest of farmers.

“The Centre is now snatching electricity rights from the states, like health and education,” Mann told reporters. He was accompanied by Jarnail Singh, AAP MLA from Delhi and in-charge of Punjab affairs, on the occasion.

He expressed apprehension that with the implementation of the Electricity Amendment Bill, the farmers would start getting bills. — TNS
