The Central Government implements various schemes for the benefit of the people, and one such initiative was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The announcement of the Prime Minister Suryoday Yojana came immediately after the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. Under this scheme, solar panels will be installed on the roofs of one crore homes across the country. Prime Minister Modi presided over a meeting to discuss the details of this ambitious plan. Today, we are sharing information on who stands to benefit from this scheme and what its rules entail.
Prime Minister Modi shared this information on his official handle, stating, “In the divine light of Lord Shri Ram, devotees around the world perpetually receive energy. On this auspicious occasion of the Pran Pratishtha in Ayodhya, I am resolved and pleased to announce that every Indian household will have its own solar roof. After returning from Ayodhya, I have taken the first decision that our government will launch the Prime Minister Suryoday Yojana with the goal of installing rooftop solar on one crore homes. This will not only reduce the electricity bills for the poor and middle class but also make India self-reliant in the field of energy.
Who Will Benefit Under the Scheme?
Prime Minister Suryoday Yojana is set to begin for the benefit of the country’s poor and middle-class citizens. People residing in remote areas will be included in this scheme. Currently, there are no specific guidelines issued by the government regarding this, but it is being conveyed that families with an income of less than two lakh rupees will benefit from this scheme. Initially, one crore people will be brought under the scheme. After the installation of solar panels, individuals will find relief from the stress of high electricity bills. The maximum advantage of this scheme will be realized by the residents of states where electricity is considerably expensive.
