AGARTALA, Dec 6 (TIWN): The Central Govt has asked states to send a report on electrification of households which had started from UPA Govt's time.

The report needs to be send within Dec 15.

But a source said that atleast 33 % houses have left without power connectivity in Tripura.

Earlier in UPA Govt's time it was Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojana (RGGVY), which was changed under Modi Govt with Deendayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana and later again it had changed with Pradhan MantriSahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana.

But as per Tripura's power expansion report given by State Govt, the aim was to reach our 569 areas (para) with power-access, whether the target has been completed with 359 areas with 63 % of success only.
