Karnataka government has launched a free power scheme named ‘Gruha Jyothi scheme’ for providing free electricity up to 200 units a month.
The scheme also extends to tenants living on rent if their electricity consumption matches the scheme’s criteria.
Registration to the scheme is done on the Seva Sindhu portal under a special custom-made page.
The E-governance department has made the registration process very simple. The consumer must enter the electricity bill’s customer ID, their Aadhar number, and mobile number.
The registration simultaneously started at Karnataka One, Grama One and Bengaluru One centre across the state.
The beneficiaries will get a ‘zero bill’ starting August 1 if usage is within their entitlement.
