The Karnataka government has launched a new scheme called the Gruha Jyothi scheme, which provides free electricity to all residential households in the state whose monthly consumption is less than 200 units. The scheme was announced by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in his budget speech for the financial year 2023-24.
The Gruha Jyothi scheme is a major initiative by the Karnataka government to provide relief to the state’s poor and middle-class households. The scheme is expected to benefit over 10 million households in the state.
Under the Gruha Jyothi scheme, households will be provided free electricity for up to 200 units per month. This means that households whose monthly consumption is less than 200 units will not have to pay any electricity bills. Households whose monthly consumption exceeds 200 units will only be charged for the excess consumption.
The Gruha Jyothi scheme is a welcome move by the Karnataka government. The scheme will help to reduce the financial burden on poor and middle-class households. The scheme will also help to improve the living standards of these households.
