All supplies of works contract to govt are not exempted under this notification. Your WC is not eligible for exemption.

Not clearly understood.As per notification no.24 DTD.21.9.2017 any supply to govt.division in respect of services supplied by way of construction,commission,installation,repair and renovation attracts get @12%.Thus how u derive gst @18% in respect if electrification work to govt.division.

The querist's reading was right for 2017: Notification 24/2017-CT(R) did give 12% for works contract to Government for original works on a civil structure not meant for commerce; however, this concession was withdrawn for most such government works from 18 July 2022, and electrical works contracts for a government office are now taxed at 18%.
