1. What does Goa's 'Goem Vinamulya Vij Yevjan' scheme support?
Goa's 'Goem Vinamulya Vij Yevjan' scheme, launched by Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, focuses on enhancing solar rooftop installations for residential users. This initiative aims to enable households that consume 400 or fewer units of electricity annually to generate their own electricity, thereby reducing their reliance on traditional power sources. The scheme aligns with the Prime Minister’s Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana and includes significant financial support to cover the cost of installations, promoting sustainable energy practices within the state.
