Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Thursday said the Gruha Jyothi scheme will be launched on August 1 in Kalaburagi while the Gruha Lakshmi scheme would be flagged off on August 17 or 18 in Belagavi.
At a high-level meeting with senior government officials on implementation of both ‘guarantee’ schemes, he instructed the officers that the application process for all schemes should be made very simple.
“Unnecessary information and documents should not be sought. Also, if applications are rejected, appropriate reasons should be cited,” he said. He warned the officials not to reject applications for “silly reasons.”
