Original review summary

The review found that the link in the post led to solar-panel promotional information, not a government website, and that no official announcement of a free-panel program for the general public had been made. The Sustainable Energy Authority chair confirmed there was no such program for the public; the review concludes the claim is false.[S1]

Additional context

The review distinguishes this from a planned project for religious sites, funded by an Indian government grant, which it says had not yet begun. [S1]
