A video of Uttar Pradesh Energy Minister AK Sharma shouting “Jai Shri Ram” in response to power cut complaints has gone viral, sparking outrage. While en route from Jaunpur to Sultanpur, traders in Surapur flagged him down, alleging they receive just 3 hours of electricity daily, with even a fixed time schedule displayed publicly. Sharma folded his hands, uttered “Okay, okay,” and began chanting “Jai Shri Ram” and “Jai Hanuman” before speeding away. The incident drew sharp criticism online, echoing the Allahabad HC’s “Ram Bharose” remark on UP’s rural systems. Following the backlash, Sharma suspended technician Umankar Yadav and posted about it on social media, claiming action has been taken. Uttar Pradesh: 6-Foot-Long Cobra Sparks Panic in Baghpat, Family Flees Home in Terror As Snake Hisses Loudly at Dawn; Video Goes Viral.
