The government has announced several solar energy schemes, but many poor families still remain without access to them. While wealthier households can afford to install solar panels, low-income families continue to struggle with rising electricity bills and long hours of load shedding.
If these schemes are truly meant to improve people’s lives, priority should be given to deserving families. The selection process should be transparent and free from favoritism or corruption. Local authorities must ensure that solar panels reach those who genuinely cannot afford them.
Providing solar systems to poor households would reduce their financial burden, improve children’s education by ensuring electricity for studying, and help families live with dignity. Clean energy should not be a privilege only for the rich.
I urge the concerned authorities to make solar schemes fair, transparent, and accessible to the poorest citizens.
