BUDAPEST, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Hungary's government will partly reimburse higher heating costs for households in January due to increased demand amid freezing temperatures at a cost of 50 billion forints ($157.14 million), adding to large-scale spending ahead of an April election.
In power since 2010, Prime Minister Viktor Orban is seeking to revive the economy ahead of the April 12 ballot, with his right-wing Fidesz trailing centre-right opposition challenger Tisza based on most fresh surveys.
