JAMMU: Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday said there will be no general increase in electricity tariffs across the Union territory in the current financial year.

“For 2025-26, there is no general increase in electricity tariffs across J&K and the Time of Day (ToD) tariff remains unchanged,” the Chief Minister’s Office said in a post on X.
