Practice questions
Q1What was the original maximum subsidy available to an eligible agricultural electricity consumer under Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana?
The original benefit was an additional subsidy of up to ₹1,000 in a month, with a ceiling of ₹12,000 in a year for an eligible agricultural electricity consumer. The later figure of 2,000 refers to units of monthly consumption eligible for free farm electricity after the merger, not to the original rupee subsidy cap.
Q2Which option gives the correct chronological order of developments related to Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana? 1. Benefit counted from the May 2021 billing month 2. Formal announcement on 17 July 2021 3. Announcement of the free-farm-power framework in the 2023-24 Budget 4. Free agricultural electricity up to 2,000 units per month from the June 2023 billing month
The benefit was counted first from the May 2021 billing month, followed by the formal announcement on 17 July 2021. The 2023-24 Budget then announced the free-farm-power framework, and free agricultural electricity for consumption up to 2,000 units per month applied from the June 2023 billing month. Therefore, 1-2-3-4 is correct.
Q3Consider the following statements about the original Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana: 1. It covered Rajasthan's rural general-category farmer consumers having agricultural electricity connections. 2. Government employees and income-tax payers were eligible without any exclusion. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Statement 1 is correct because the original beneficiary group comprised rural general-category farmer consumers in Rajasthan with agricultural electricity connections, including the stated connection categories. Statement 2 is incorrect because government employees and income-tax payers were excluded; they were not beneficiaries without restriction.
Q4Consider the following statements about the post-merger farm-power framework in Rajasthan: 1. Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana was merged with Mukhyamantri Nishulk Bijli Yojna (Krishi Anudaan). 2. Agricultural consumers using up to 2,000 units per month receive free electricity from the June 2023 billing month. 3. For monthly consumption above 2,000 units, the earlier ₹1,000 subsidy continues. 4. The original scheme remains active as a separate central-sector scheme. How many of the above statements are correct?
Statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct: the scheme was merged with Mukhyamantri Nishulk Bijli Yojna (Krishi Anudaan), free farm electricity up to 2,000 units per month applies from the June 2023 billing month, and the earlier ₹1,000 subsidy continues above that threshold. Statement 4 is false because this is a Rajasthan state scheme and no longer a separate active scheme.
Q5Which department is the nodal department for Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana?
The Energy Department, Government of Rajasthan, is the nodal department for Mukhyamantri Kisan Mitra Urja Yojana, while the state's electricity distribution companies carry out delivery. Its subject matter is farm-power bill subsidy, and it is a Rajasthan state scheme rather than a central or cooperative-credit programme.
