Skyrocketing electricity tariffs have long burdened Madhya Pradesh families, but the PM Surya Ghar Free Electricity Scheme is delivering unprecedented relief. Hailed as a boon, this central government program equips homes with solar panels, effectively nullifying power bills while promoting green energy.
Eligible households receive generous subsidies to install rooftop solar systems, producing enough electricity for daily needs. Surplus energy sold back to the grid generates extra revenue, turning homes into mini power plants.
In Shahdol, beneficiaries are vocal about the impact. Paras Jain recalls the constant fear of high bills from appliances like ACs and heaters. ‘Now, I use them freely,’ he says, crediting the scheme for his newfound peace of mind.
For Ramsahay Mishra, monthly expenses of 5,000-6,000 rupees wreaked havoc on finances. Learning from peers, he enrolled, and today, his electricity worries are history. The installation has proven immensely beneficial.
Ranjeet Basak’s story is equally inspiring. Long plagued by steep bills, a newspaper article led him to the scheme. With a 78,000-rupee subsidy, his costs dropped 75%, prompting gratitude to the PM and a call for others to join.
This initiative empowers millions with sustainable power solutions, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Madhya Pradesh’s success story underscores the scheme’s potential to reshape India’s energy landscape, blending economic savings with ecological benefits.
