Uttar Pradesh to Provide 24‑Hour Power Supply in New Nagar Panchayats During Diwali, Chhath

State Minister <b>Sharma</b> ordered that <b>newly formed nagar panchayats</b> receive uninterrupted, quality electricity throughout the Diwali and Chhath festivals, starting immediately, to match urban standards. The directive highlights a chronic gap: many small towns still endure frequent outages, while urban hubs enjoy stable supply. Officials often promise upgrades, but implementation drags behind, leaving residents to rely on generators during peak celebrations. If the promise holds, households can finally celebrate festivals without the usual blackout interruptions and stress.
