Surplus Power Surprise - Entire Day Light Off

Just wake up in the morning and read on the newspaper, power is surplus and the villages are now going to get electricity. Then came the real surprise, the entire day was a light off, and in the late evening, finally the electricity was restored. I took this picture with the help of a candle, so much for the state power surplus. The funny thing is that in the morning it self we were laughing on the statement as the electricity condition in Ranchi, Jharkhand is really really poor.

Though I would take this opportunity to say that the conditions of the electricity has surely improved in Jharkhandi in the last decade or so, but it is nowhere near surplus to say the least.
