The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Friday made an announcement that the power subsidy that benefits around 46 lakh consumers in Delhi will cease, starting from today. Delhi Power Minister Atishi Marlena announced during a press conference and blamed the Lieutenant Governor V. K. Saxena for not clearing the file to extend the subsidy, which is because such decision has been taken.

Post Marlena’s press conference, LG Saxena cleared the pending file by marking it approved.

She also said, from next Monday onwards consumers will receive inflated bills that would exclude subsidy.

The minister stated the reason behind cancelling the subsidy is because the Delhi government plans to continue its subsidy next year but the file of the same is with LG Saxena and until it does not come back with the approval, the decision remains standstill.

Marlena claimed that she had requested for a five-minute appointment with LG Saxena to discuss about the file but there was no response from the other side. She added that despite the urgency of the issue, she did not get an appointment from the LG office.

ANI reported LG Saxena’s take on this which said the Power Minister to refrain making any such statement in public and misleading people, LG claimed that when the deadline was of 15^th April then why the file reached his office on 11^th April.

The Arvind Kejriwal government in Delhi currently provides 200 units free electricity to the consumers for a monthly consumption, the consumers having more than 200 units usage they receive a 50 percent subsidy for up to 400 units.

The AAP government that presented its budget 2023-24 in March 2023, allocated Rs 3250 crore towards power subsidy for the National Capital.

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) on Tuesday made a tweet through its official handle, which has now created a storm over the internet and has drawn criticism from the users.

PETA on its tweet stating the consumption of cow milk to be weird compared it with the drinking of neighbour’s breast milk.

PETA is a non-profit organisation founded in 1980 and has been actively working for the welfare and protection of animals since then.

PETA normally is surrounded with controversies because of its posts, campaigns and various activism.

This time PETA through its tweet has tried sending a message to encourage people to avoid people from drinking cow milk and said as its very weird for one to drink its neighbours breast milk, the same way it is very weird to drink cow milk.

This tweet has now allowed users to target the animal rights organisation. There are mixed reactions over the internet with some opposing the idea while some protesting it.

A user commented that breast milk is healthier for humans, PETA replied writing that it is because it suits human’s nutritional needs like cow milk is meant for the baby cows.

A user asked PETA that is it suggesting breast milk in cereal instead cow milk and to which PETA replied with an image containing a number of alternate options to cow milk which included oat, soya, almond milk, vegan milk and more.

Another person reacted by sharing a visual of a Chicken on a Tandoor grill, PETA immediately responded with a picture of a character.

The most hilarious reaction was when a user posted a picture i which two young boys can be seen enjoying drinking milk directly from a cow’s breast.

The animal rights organisation on one of its article mentions cow milk to be cruel and claims it be unhealthy for humans to consume.

PETA writes that cows also have an emotion and they enjoy sharing a bond with their children but in most of the dairies the cow’s basic desire to nurture their baby is killed and is often seen as milk producing machines.

It claims that the people who drink cow milk on their daily routine have high chances of suffering through severe heart disease, cancer and many life risk health problems.
