70 YEARS AFTER INDEPENDENCE - DARA GAON FINALLY GETS ELECTRICITY

70 years after independence Dara Gaon and neighboring villages under Rimbick-Lodhoma samesty finally got connected to electricity yesterday.

Ramam Hydel Projects which is also in Rimbick-Lodhoma samesty, one of the oldest in Bengal, has been in operation for nearly 30 years now, yet the villages right next to it had to wait for this long to get electric connection. While the electricity generated from Ramam was used to light-up towns and cities in the plains, our own people were deprived of this.

All the villages across the GTA region will have electricity, road, drinking water, health care and access to quality education.
