rime Minister Narendra Modi delivered a 'power'-packed punch on Sunday in a series of tweets claiming "every single village of India now has access to electricity". "April 28, 2018 will be remembered as a historic day in the development journey of India. Yesterday, we fulfilled a commitment due to which the lives of several Indians will be transformed forever! I am delighted that every single village of India now has access to electricity," he tweeted. Modi specifically mentioned Leisang, a Manipur village that too has been electrified.
