With the onset of the summer season, the electricity demand has also increased. Power cuts have started in most areas amid increasing demand and lack of supply. In such a situation, the biggest impact of power cuts is being seen on the companies and farmers.
While farmers have already planted summer crops in their fields, many farmers are about to start preparing for the Kharif crop by the end of May. Meanwhile, due to the problem with electricity, the farmers may have to deal with a shortage of water. Given this problem, the Rajasthan government has decided to supply electricity to the farmers through a roster system for agricultural work.
According to this, electricity will be supplied to the farmers in three blocks for agricultural purposes. Under this, electricity will be provided in 3 blocks for 4-4 hours at different times in 24 hours. That is, in the farmers, rural and urban areas, electricity will be cut according to the roster system. Where electricity will be supplied from 10 am to 2 pm. After this, electricity will be provided from 12 pm to 4 pm and then from 2 pm to 6 am at the night.
