Kundi connections have direct link with the political power. Mostly unauthorised colonies and slum areas use kundi connections. As these people are the major vote-banks of the leaders, the authorities don’t dare to annoy them. As a matter of fact, the electricity thieves should be trained to draw power through kundis in a safe manner. Because if some slum dweller dies accidentally, while messing with the live wires for connecting kundi, it is a big loss to the leader of his area, who loses a committed voter. Somebody asked Badal sahib, "Sir, there are thousands and thousands of kundi connections across Punjab, why don’t you do something about it?" Badal replied, "Let us make a separate Kundi Corporation of Punjab and adjust one of our MLA as the chairman and a bureaucrat as the MD."
