The Maharashtra Cabinet is meeting on Wednesday and is likely to take up the proposal to cut power tariffs in Mumbai.
This comes after Congress MPs Sanjay Nirupam and Priya Dutt held protests on Monday demanding slashing down of electricity bills for Mumbaikars.
Backed by a crowd, the two Congress leaders gathered outside Reliance's regional office in Kandivali and raised slogans.
A Group of Ministers headed by Industries Minister Narayan Rane had recommended 10 to 20 per cent cut in power tariffs for Mumbai.
Earlier to protests, Nirupam had also written to Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan demanding a cut in power tariff, asking if the AAP government in Delhi can do so why the same can't be done in Mumbai and Maharashtra.
