Haryana Hits Pause Button on Power Bills After Monsoon Mayhem for Farmers  

Nov 4: UBM News: The monsoon of 2025 was a season many farmers across Haryana won't soon forget. Fields turned into lakes, hopes of a good harvest washed away with the relentless rains and floods. And as if battling nature wasn't enough, another worry loomed large for many: the dreaded electricity bill.

 

 

But wait! A ray of sunshine, even amidst the lingering damp! From Chandigarh, on November 4th, came an announcement that had many breathing a sigh of relief.

 

The Haryana government, understanding the immense pressure on its agricultural backbone, unveiled a special relief scheme. For all agricultural tubewell consumers in the state, electricity bill payments from July 2025 to December 2025 have been deferred for a full six months!
