PM Modi's Mission-Mode Push for Rooftop Solar

planned

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called for a mission-mode drive to rapidly expand rooftop solar adoption across urban India, focusing on cities, residential complexes, and public institutions. The initiative aims to reduce electricity bills, strengthen energy security, and promote clean energy at the grassroots level. The government launched the PM Surya Ghar scheme offering up to 40% subsidy on installation costs, targeting 4 million residential installations by March, with 2.36 million installations achieved so far. The mission also includes innovative use of canal networks for solar power generation and broader infrastructure projects under PRAGATI review.
