Yes the bulu will glow, if the earth is pakka.
The neutral is earthed at each distribution transformers,
form this point only neutral is taken.

Answer / nagendra
Generally all the distribution transformers have Primary
DELTA and Secondary STAR connection. The neutral of the
STAR is grounded. So the bulb will glow if connect accross
PHASE and NEUTRAL or PHASE and GROUND.

Answer / deepak
The need of Neutral: It gives assurance of reliable
centralised earthing as your home may or may not have
reliable earthing.

Answer / phani.mukku
it will glow becoz,the other end either neutral or earth wire is grounded for zero potential.the ground is nothing but the second neutral for the human from shock whenever there is an leakage connection.
