The problem, in one line
What happens
The Delhi government has made it mandatory for domestic consumers to share Aadhaar details to avail of the benefits under the power subsidy scheme. A Power Department notification issued on September 30 says those seeking the subsidy must furnish their Aadhaar number through a government portal or any other prescribed mode; those without Aadhaar can apply using their Aadhaar Enrolment ID. The subsidy scheme is administered through five power discoms: BSES Rajdhani, BSES Yamuna, Tata Power Delhi Distribution, the New Delhi Municipal Council and the Military Engineer Services. The notification does not specify a deadline for existing beneficiaries to submit their Aadhaar details nor a separate procedure for consumers already receiving the benefit. A CAG report said the scheme's cost rose from ₹2,405.59 crore in 2019-20 to ₹3,161 crore in 2022-23, up to 70.39% of Delhi's total subsidy expense.
