Advance Payment and Duration for Temporary Pump Connections

Agricultural connections are being offered to farmers for three to five months, allowing them to irrigate their crops during the Rabi season. According to Madhya Pradesh's Energy Minister, Pradyuman Singh Tomarthe government has made necessary arrangements to ensure a steady and quality power supply for farmers.
