No Electricity in Rasulpur Village
Sujon Ahmed, Mymensingh, 16 August: Electricity is unquestionably a boon to the modern people. It is at the same time a bane to them because every day they are getting deprived of electricity-based advantages as there is no rural electrification programme in Rasulpur, a village under Gafargaon Upazila in Mymensingh. The people of this village felt really exalted when they heard that their village was going to be electrified.
In a short spell of a month only, the village was equipped with electric poles and houses were properly wired. People were highly delighted thinking that there would be charming electric lamps at nights. Students expected that they would not need to wrestle against the faint lights of kerosene lamps. But it is a matter of great that the electrification came to a dead lock for unknown reasons.
The Rural Electrification Board made only lame excuses. They are neither withdrawing nor taking any active measure. Now a large number of village people are at loss to see through this stagnant situation. Their sufferings beggar description. The concerned authority and the government should take immediate measures to start supplying power in the village so that the people can enjoy modern amenities of life.
