Why does Uttar Pradesh and Bihar have no industry and why is the power sector in the states in the doldrums? Most workers in the blue collared sector are Muslims, so is there a strategy to deny proper employment to Muslims in certain states by regional parties? Without electricity no one can set up industry it is argued, but do the states have the political freedom to set up manufacturing units to make Modi's Make in India campaign a reality? The answer to this question can only be arrived at after seeing what political leaders of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar have done in the recent past when it comes to both power plants and industry in the state.
