Power and Renewable Energy Minister Raj Kumar Singh launched the Gram UJALA Scheme on Friday. Under this scheme, people will get LED bulbs for only 10 rupees. The special thing is that despite such a low price, no help or subsidy is being provided by the government. Through this scheme, the government aims to remove rural India from darkness.
This program has been launched by Convergence Energy Services Limited (CESL). Under this, CESL will distribute 1.5 crore bulbs in the first phase. This government company is selling LED bulbs at the lowest rates in the world. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of EESL (Energy Efficiency Services Ltd). EESL is an energy company of the Government of India, which is the largest energy service company in the world. Its 100 percent stake is with the Government of India. It is a joint venture of NTPC, Power Finance Corporation, REC Limited and Powergrid.
