Shushila Devi who makes incense sticks tells that she is very much optimistic about the launching of solar electricity in Dharnai village, block Makhdumpur, district Jehanabad.
She hopes that she will be able to work on incense sticks also in the dark in the evenings and earn more than she does now.
The people of Dharnai village used to have a facility supplied by the state Government which provided electricity. This infrastructure hasn't been available for the last 33 years and diesel generators have been the only source of electricity. Development of solar power micro grid to electrify the entire village brings new hope for its inhabitants.
