The Story in Brief
At least three BJP MLAs from Lucknow have written to Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister A K Sharma, complaining about severe power cuts, low voltage, and transformer failures across their constituencies. Neeraj Bora, Rajeshwar Singh, and O P Srivastava cited mounting public anger during the intense summer heat. The ruling party legislators demanded immediate restoration of supply and a permanent policy solution to prevent recurring outages. The move has handed opposition Congress an opportunity to attack the state government, with state chief Ajay Rai alleging that people across Uttar Pradesh are spending sleepless nights due to the power crisis.
The Indian Opinion
The sight of ruling party MLAs penning complaints to their own government is a rare admission that the Yogi Adityanath administration’s boast of 24×7 power rings hollow. For years, voters were told that load-shedding was a thing of the past. Now, in peak summer, transformer failures and voltage dips are routine. When the party's own representatives cannot get answers, the common citizen has little hope. The real test will be whether these complaints lead to action, or just pile up in a minister's office.
