1.21 lakh ‘majras’ electrified
More than 1.21 lakh ‘majras’ have been electrified and the government is dedicated to quickly electrifying the remaining 36,990 villages with cooperation from the Centre, Energy Minister AK Sharma informed the Vidhan Sabha on Wednesday.
In response to a question raised during the question hour in the Vidhan Sabha, he said, “In October 2022, we had written a letter to the Central government regarding this and it is expected that soon this process will be completed and the remaining villages will also be provided with electricity supply.”
The energy minister said that after assuming office, the Yogi Adityanath government had shown readiness to provide basic facilities to the rural areas and work was being prioritised because there was a lot of unfinished work from the previous government.
