Correct Answer - Option 4 : 96 - 100

The correct answer is 96-100.

  • 9 States have achieved 100% saturation in household electrification under Saubhagya namely Madhya Pradesh, Tripura, Bihar, J&K, Uttarakhand, Mizoram, Sikkim, Telangana, and West Bengal.
  • Thus a total of 16 States in the country now have 100 % household electrification.
  • Many more states like Maharashtra, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, etc. are left with a small number of un-electrified households and expected to achieve saturation at any time.
  • Nation expected to achieve 100 % household electrification by 31st December 2018.
  • More than 2 crore electricity connections released under Saubhagya and 100 percent village electrification achieved under DDUGJY.

  • The Saubhagya Scheme or Pradhan Mantri Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana is an Indian government project to provide electricity to households.
  • The project was announced in September 2017 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said that the aim was to complete the electrification process by December 2018.
