Hardly a kilometre away from the Medical College in Assam’s Nalbari town, the journey to Bardhanara village is a long and arduous voyage

Nearest to Nalbari Hospital

Bimal Deka, his wife Anima and their three children - Naren, Dipali and Seuti are the only dwellers in this village in Ghograpara circle

One family only

The Deka family lament over the poor connectivity that forced the inhabitants to abandon the area

Isolated, dejected

The family lives without an electricity connection as it has not reached the village yet. Arunodya is the only government scheme that has benefited the family to date.

No electricity
