Give Water Or No Vote, Says Remote Village in Uttar Pradesh | Read
A tiny village in Uttar Pradesh has refused to vote in the national election if they do not get permanent water supply. The village is in Sonbhadra, a district just 170 km from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lok Sabha constituency Varanasi. Sonbhadra is a thermal power hub, but Bodra Dadh, a village of 700, alleges six decades of neglect. Since the last 60 years, the village has never had piped water supply or even a single hand pump to draw water.
