Gruha Jyothi revision aims to ensure benefits reach only eligible households: Gescom chief
Gescom officials in Karnataka are conducting a door-to-door verification drive for the Gruha Jyothi electricity subsidy scheme. The initiative aims to remove ineligible beneficiaries and register households that qualify but are not yet enrolled.
Why it matters

The door-to-door verification of beneficiaries under the State government’s Gruha Jyothi scheme gathered pace in Kalaburagi on Thursday (July 2), with Gescom chairman Praveen Patil Harwal personally inspecting the ongoing exercise and interacting with beneficiaries to clear doubts over the revision process.
