Crucial for govt to identify real beneficiaries of interest subvention scheme: GTRI
The government must identify the real beneficiaries of the interest subvention scheme, according to think tank GTRI. The Union Cabinet approved an additional allocation of Rs 2,500 crore for the scheme. GTRI emphasized the need for a detailed study of the scheme to identify actual beneficiaries and assess the effectiveness of banks in assisting small firms. The scheme’s low expenditure suggests it is underused, and GTRI suggested making it permanent or extending it for another five years. The scheme provides credit at lower interest rates, benefiting MSMEs in particular.

Karnataka: Unscheduled power cuts irk citizens
Unscheduled power cuts and fluctuations in voltage have become a new problem in Karnataka despite efforts to meet the surge in power demand. Citizens are frustrated with the increasing number of power outages, even in areas with improved energy supply. The engineers attribute the outages to the increased load factor on the existing infrastructure. The power transmission infrastructure has not been able to keep up with the doubled power consumption in Bengaluru, leading to tripping and breakdown of lines. However, the engineers and technical staff are quick to respond and restore power supply in minutes.
