description: "Most outlets reported the policy change of replacing free electricity with a cash payment of Rs30 per unit for senior officers in the Power Division. 24 News HD described the shift as a government decision affecting officers from BS-17 to BS-21, while ProPakistani framed it as a move to give cash to senior bureaucrats instead of free electricity. Both outlets focused on the financial shift but used slightly different language to describe the affected group and the nature of the change."
