KALABURAGI: The government on Saturday formally launched its Gruha Jyothi scheme that promises up to 200 units of free electricity to every household in the state.
Gruha Jyothi is one of the five pre-poll guarantees issued by the Congress in the run-up to the assembly elections in Karnataka this May. Ahead of next year’s Lok Sabha polls, the party has made a big deal of these guarantees, making them the central theme of its campaign, with a target of winning at least 20 out of the 28 seats in the state.
