Two additional guarantee schemes promised by the Congress government in Karnataka have been put into effect.
The first scheme involves providing cash to beneficiaries instead of the extra five kg of rice under the ‘Anna Bhagya’. The second scheme, called ‘Gruha Jyothi’, offers 200 units of free electricity to households.
The government has already fulfilled one of its five election promises, named “Shakti,” by introducing free Services for Women in public transport buses.
Chief minister Siddaramaiah said that the payment to beneficiaries under the Anna Bhagya scheme for this month is expected to commence after July 10. On the other hand, the Gruha Jyothi scheme has become effective immediately, and theelectricity billfor this month will be issued at the beginning of August, in accordance with the billing cycle.
The benefit is calculated based on Average consumption for Financial Year 2022-23, plus 10 percent increase, but total amounting to less than 200 units.
