Our government's aim is 'Power to the Poor'. We will achieve our target of complete electrification of more than 18,000 villages which have yet not received electricity since independence, says Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan.

Minister Najma Heptulla adds, "Our mission for power is bringing new hope to the people who had lost faith on the government."

Progress on rural electrification during our regime is like a revolution. We are reaching every village of the country: MoS Jayant Sinha
