Answer:

(i) Most of the houses in Palampur have electric connections.   (ii) Electricity powers all the tube wells in the fields that help to irrigate much larger areas of land more effectively as compared to the traditional Persian wheel drawn by bullocks. Since the entire cultivated area of 200 hectares had come under irrigation farmers did not have to depend on rainfall and could grow multiple crops.   (iii) It helps small businesses run their machinery like Mishrilal's sugarcane crushing machine.
