In the agriculture sector, the government is bringing many schemes to reduce the agricultural expenditure of the farmers and increase the income. In this episode, the government is running “Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana” for the farmers of Rajasthan. With the help of this scheme, electricity will be given almost free of cost to small and middle-class farmers for agricultural use.
Under this scheme, a subsidy of Rs 1000 will be given on agricultural electricity bills every month. This means that if the farmer gets an agricultural electricity bill of Rs 1000 in a month, then he will not have to deposit any amount. Apart from this, if the electricity bill of a farmer is less than Rs 1000, then the remaining amount of subsidy for that month will be added to the amount of the next month. In this way, farmers will be given Rs 12000 through electricity bill subsidy.
