The Managing Director of Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation (CESC) launched the Gruha Jyothi beneficiary data collection drive in Mysuru on Wednesday. The initiative aims to verify and collect data from beneficiaries of the Gruha Jyothi scheme, which provides free electricity to eligible households in Karnataka.
On-Site Verification Process
The data collection process is being conducted on-site using a mobile application and a declaration form. Beneficiaries are required to provide necessary details and sign the declaration form to confirm their eligibility. The mobile app enables real-time data entry and validation, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
CESC officials stated that the drive will cover all eligible households in the Mysuru region. The collected data will be used to update the beneficiary database and streamline the disbursal of benefits under the Gruha Jyothi scheme.
Official Statement
According to a CESC spokesperson, “This drive is crucial to ensure that only genuine beneficiaries receive the benefits. The mobile application helps in eliminating errors and reducing paperwork.” The MD emphasized that the process is transparent and will be completed without any inconvenience to the public.
The Gruha Jyothi scheme, launched by the Karnataka government, provides up to 200 units of free electricity per month to eligible households. The data collection drive is expected to be completed within a month.
