No, this post is not about the Bollywood film star Salman Khan or his new movie "Ek tha Tiger" (There was a Tiger). Although, the caption would be befitting for Salman considering that he is a serial offender in cases of 'going shirtless'.
This post is also not about villages and electricity in villages, the theme of my research. This post is based on a city called Gurgaon, a suburb of Delhi.

"tamso ma jyotirgamayam", meaning "from darkness, take me to light". This is the Sanskrit script in the lower left corner of the picture above. This is the tag line, the punch line of Husk Power Systems.
As per husk power system's website,
"We are world leaders in decentralised generation and distribution of electric power.
Husk Power Systems (“HPS”) lighted the first village from its first 100% biomass based power plant that uses discarded rice husks to generate electricity in August 2007 and today it has installed 60 mini-power plants that power ~ 25,000 households in more than 250 villages and hamlets and impact lives of approximately 150,000 people in rural India."
