Later, the Deputy CM also launched UrjaVistar mobile application which would help the department in conducting survey of electrified and unelectrifed households and providing free connections to the poor under PMSY.

Later, Dr Singh also distributed certificates among those who got power connections after registering themselves on the UrjaVistar app.
