BBMP to save ₹48,000 every month with solar rooftop system in Rajajinagar
The Hindu
The savings will be through reduction in power bills
A solar rooftop system has been installed in the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) office in Rajajinagar at a cost of ₹40 lakh. The building houses the civic body’s local engineering, health and revenue offices, apart from Bengaluru Electricity Supply Company (Bescom), Bangalore One, Regional Transport Office, Nada Katcheri (district revenue office) and Jindal Hospital.
This is, probably, the first such system to be installed on a government building in Karnataka, according to the BBMP.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
