Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Thursday assured the Legislative Council that he would review if State Government pensioners could be brought under the Jyothi Sanjeevini scheme.
Responding to a question by BJP member Bharathi Shetty, he said that currently the cashless scheme was meant only for serious diseases/illnesses extended to serving Government employees and their family members.
“Discussions are on if more diseases/illnesses could be brought within its ambit and we will consider if pensioners could be brought under the scheme,” he said.
