: The residents of Sindol village in Hisar have written to the local MP Brijendra Singh to provide electricity connection to the family of deceased soldier Somvir Singh, who along with 15 others died in a road mishap in Sikkim last week. Village sarpanch Sarjeet said the family of Singh has been living in a hamlet which is outside the village. “His family is using solar plates to get electricity. When his cremation rites were performed, we had to arrange a generator to get light. The government can’t bear the expenses of providing electricity to one family. As many as 22 poles are required from the village to the soldier’s house and it costs around ₹ 1.5 lakh. We have written to Hisar MP Brijendra Singh to provide connection to the soldier’s family through MP-LADS fund,” he added.
