The Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana is witnessing rapid progress in Rajnandgaon district, with more than 7,800 applications received so far. Backed by subsidies of up to ₹1.08 lakh from the Centre and State governments, the scheme is enabling households to adopt rooftop solar, reduce electricity bills, and move towards energy self-reliance.

The Prime Minister Surya Ghar Free Electricity Scheme is proving to be a blessing for ordinary households across India. In Rajnandgaon, Chhattisgarh, resident Giridhar Lal Dewangan has set an inspiring example by installing a rooftop solar power system that not only meets his family’s electricity needs but also contributes surplus energy to the grid. His success story reflects the transformative potential of the scheme in promoting renewable energy, reducing household expenses, and driving India toward energy independence.
