Read the following passage carefully:
Under the 2026 Rural Clean Energy Transition Directive, state financial assistance for installing decentralized solar microgrids is restricted exclusively to off-grid tribal villages where grid expansion costs exceed ₹15 lakh per kilometer. To qualify for the maximum subsidy of 80%, an eligible village must form a local User Co-operative Society consisting of at least 60% women members responsible for tariff collection and maintenance. Off-grid tribal villages that satisfy the grid expansion cost criterion but establish co-operatives with fewer than 60% women members are eligible for only a baseline subsidy of 40%. Villages already connected to the central electricity grid are strictly ineligible for any financial support under this directive, regardless of their demographic composition or local governance structure.
Based on the passage provided above, which of the following conclusions can be logically inferred?
- An off-grid tribal village with a grid expansion cost of ₹18 lakh per kilometer and 50% women membership in its User Co-operative Society is eligible for a 40% baseline subsidy.Cevap
- BVillages connected to the central electricity grid can receive a 40% baseline subsidy if their User Co-operative Society has more than 60% women members.
- CThe primary objective of the Rural Clean Energy Transition Directive is to generate employment opportunities for women in tribal areas.
- DGrid expansion in off-grid tribal villages always costs more than ₹15 lakh per kilometer due to challenging geography.
