Resident Lokesh Sharma told ANI, "We have been provided with cooked food by Virendra Sachdeva. The ration is provided by Sewa Bharti every week. We have been facing difficulties for everything here. For water, we have to walk 5 km. There is no electricity. So, we have collected solar plate to charge the phone. Moreover, there is no toilet for us here."
