A day after the State government came out with guidelines for executing the Gruha Jyothi scheme, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday reiterated that all families residing in rental houses were also eligible to avail themselves of free power supply up to 200 units.
Mr. Siddaramaiah told reporters that tenants were also eligible to avail themselves of the scheme under which 200 units of free power would be provided to all domestic consumers in the State from July 1.
The guidelines issued on Monday did not mention the eligibility of families residing in rental properties.
