Who has funded for electrification of Odisha


Fund sanctioned by Central Govt. and State Govt.  for electrification in Odisha

Dear friends
Nabin Patnaik  Govt. has put  up big banners and hoardings in different parts of the state  taking much credit  for progress  in rural electrification  in the state . But  in true sense,  Contribution of State  Govt. is  minimal in comparison  to that of Central Govt.. The Central Govt.  has  allocated fund  14  times  more  than  allocation of  fund by State  Govt. during last five years.  While State  Govt. has allocated  just 427.45 crore,  allocation  of  fund  by Central Govt. is  6240.36 crore. 

RTI Application was filed to Department of Energy, Govt. of Odisha and Rural electrification Corporations, a Govt. of India Enterprises seeking information about  details of budgetary allocation made under various schemes  for electrification in Odisha. The  information supplied by both the  offices is as follows ( Dept. of Energy on 9.10.18  and REC on 27.12.18)

1.    Two  schemes  i.e., Biju Gram Jyoti Yojana ( BGJY)  and Biju Saharanchal Vidyutikaran Yojana ( BSVY)  are  implemented  in Odisha  for  electrification.
