It is reported in Times of India today that Sheetal Khera, a village only a few miles away from Lucknow, the capital of UP, has got electric connection now. It is 68 years since India got Independence. It is also reported that there are thousands of such villages in UP alone, where electricity has not reached so far. All over India, it may be lakhs of villages.

The NDA and UPA governments have to answer the people of this country why these villages have been neglected in your growth story. The continued governments have completely neglected the villagers. The poor has become poorer and rich richer, due to this discriminating policy. There should be an immediate end to such discrimination.
