ISLAMABAD: The government has decided to implement new electricity rates from July, announced the power division on Thursday, adding the new tariffs would not have a huge impact on the monthly bills currently paid by consumers.

Some local media outlets reported the new rates reflected a per-unit increase of up to Rs5.72.
