Kejriwal questioned the decision of the government to bring such an amendment right before the Lok Sabha elections. If the cross subsidy is done away with, then everyone will be charged ?7.40 unit. "The amendments have been aimed at benefiting two big power generation and distribution companies that are good friends of Prime Minister Narendra Modi," he said. I will also ask the leaders of the non-BJP parties in Rajya Sabha to oppose this amendment," he added..
