We live in nation's energy capital but dont have any electricity in our villages
Zulaikha Jabeen is visiting Tilaidand Gram Panchayat in Korba district in Chhattisgarh. Though Korba is known as electricity capital and supplies power to far off places but 5 villages under this Gram Panchayat has no power. They have been requesting everyone but there is no help. This is a forest area and wild animals roam in the night. The villages also do not have any hospital. They need to walk 6 kms before they reach any road. For more Zulaikha Ji is at 9893394752
