Delhi CM rules out roll-back of power tariff hike

Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshiton Friday ruled out any roll-back in the power tariff hike announced on Wednesday. 

Even as protests raged across the city, Dikshit said the tariff hike would not be rolled back. Her latest stand was in sharp contrast to her views on Wednesday when she had hinted that a subsidy for poor consumers was likely. 

Dikshit's refusal on tariff hike roll-back came amidst BJP's city-wide protests and demonstrations. The main opposition party hit the streets to protest the steep hike and demanded immediate roll-back.
