The lights came on for 400 million people. In 2000, 420 million Indians lived without electricity - more than the population of the USA. By 2023: 7 million. The biggest switch-on in human history. Bangladesh did it too: 91 million in the dark down to under 1 million. But the problem didn't disappear - it moved. Nigeria went UP from 72 to 88 million and in 2018 overtook India as the country with the most people without power on Earth. DR Congo climbed from 47 to 82 million, because its population grows faster than its grid. India: 420M to 7M Bangladesh: 91M to 857K Nigeria: 72M to 88M (up) DR Congo: 47M to 82M (up) Which country surprised you most?

@maeir_8 If wanna see retardation look at comments

@rohan_singh_31012001 Ya electricity is a long term game, Goverment Fixed the middle part of electricity. Which is distribution but there is still problem in local bodies distribution which needs to be fixed. I hope goverment understand and make everything underground related to electricity. Any one thinks that the reduction happened in modi Goverment. You are so wrong Major things started early on but to see result they took time.

@cockroast_ "People without access to electricity" Graph should be low, that's mean Indians have electricity now.

@aurion.ac Someone else kickstarted it retards, if modi was there way before 2014, NOTHING would've happened

@aka_000_ Bhai population index and overall graphs related chizo ko roz breakfast mai khata hai
