Lucknow: Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati, Wednesday morning, got to taste how it feels to lose power when the electricity to her house in Badalpur in Greater Noida was disconnected due to non-payment of dues.

The bill of Rs 67,000 had not been paid and power department spokesman said that the disconnection had been done in a ‘routine exercise’.
