Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Up to 10 kW
The PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, approved in February 2024, helps one crore households put solar panels on their roofs and get up to 300 units of free electricity a month, with a central subsidy. To make the connections quicker, the electricity rules were changed in 2024 so that rooftop solar systems of up to 10 kW need no technical feasibility study: they are treated as technically feasible, and the distribution company has to connect them.
