Lack of fast development in a rural area:
All these inventions must reach the vast majority of people, especially in rural areas. Residents of the city adopt these devices easily because the people of the city can spend a sufficient amount for their convenience, but this is not the case in rural areas. Despite government subsidies, solar equipment and other inventions have not reached the majority of rural people completely.
Pollution in Rural:
It's believed to be that the environment of urban areas is polluted due to vehicles, and factories, but incredibly, pollution problems exist in rural areas as well, but the reason is different. Most of the huts built by villagers produce carbon monoxide by not having a ventilated kitchen. This toxic gas produces due to burning of the coal, wood, or cow dung. The inhalation of this fume by the women during
cooking causes anemia and many other diseases. Although rural areas have made a good impact on this situation to some extent with the 'Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana' (PMUY), the problem is not been eliminated.

Why solar energy can be used easily in rural?
Solar power is not readily available due to the lack of free space among the high-rise constructions in the cities. Whereas in rural areas, at open and wide fields the sunlight easily available, so it is easy to use solar energy there.
Types of solar cooker:
There are two types of solar cookers, one is box type which costs around Rs. 2000-3000 and another is parabola type, which costs more than Rs. 11000. In this situation, except few wealthy villagers, not all villagers can afford such an expensive cooker.
Zuber Saiyed and his inexpensive solar cooker:
Here I would like to write about a young, innovative, and engineer Mr. Zuber Saiyed, who since 2016 has been trying to provide solar cookers using readily available inexpensive materials for the villagers. This is the case of Mr. Zuber Saiyed, who has probably made the world's cheapest solar cooker; which costs only 100 rupees, and any person can prepare it himself.

Zuber Saiyed is preparing a cheaper solar cooker |
Mr. Zuber Saiyed has designed a solar cooker using just cardboard, aluminum foils, thread, glue, and scissor and the total cost of this material does not exceed Rs.100. He visits the number of villages and provides one-day training to the villagers, most of them are ladies, and thus he is doing an excellent social service.

Solar cookers made by Mr. Zuber Saiyed can reduce pollution problems to some extent. With this tool, rural households can reduce their fuel costs, at least during the day, which can result in savings of their monthly domestic expenses. And this is an extra advantage that they can cook healthy and nutritious cuisine for the family!
