The Lahore High Court has dismissed a constitutional petition challenging the federal government's policy to monetise free electricity units previously provided to WAPDA officers in BPS-17 and above. The court ruled that the benefit is a non-statutory service perk, not a vested or enforceable right, and that its conversion into a fixed monetary component in salaries is a legitimate administrative and financial reform aimed at addressing circular debt and inefficiencies in the power sector.
