Himachal Pradesh's Cabinet approved the rationalization of the zero electricity bill provision, limiting the subsidy to 'one family one meter' and linking power connections with ration cards. This policy change aims to ensure that subsidies are provided more equitably, particularly by abolishing subsidies for several high-ranking officials and taxpayers. Himachal Pradesh has two capitals: Shimla (Summer) and Dharamshala (Winter). The current Chief Minister is Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, and the Governor is Shiv Pratap Shukla.
