[Resolved]  Electricity Board — shortage of Manpower and irresponsible workers

Address:

Chennai, Tamil Nadu

We are residing at 3/622, govindan Nagar 6th Cross Street, Palavakkam, Chennai - 600 041.

We have a single phase Electrical connection and the post from which the live wire is connected is in bad shape and it will fall at any moment, we have made several complaints to the EB office and all our efforts was at vain, a new post had been brought to replace the existing one and it is still lying at front of our house for the last 6 months and till date the EB department had not found time to replace the damaged one.

We have frequent power cuts problems and when we complaint to the office, the line man will come and say that they cannot climb on the damaged pillar to reconnect the wires,and make damage to thier own life and they have returned without repairing, we have even slept 2-3 days without power connections, it is very bad and severe during summers. We have made several complaints to the EE and each time he will promise that that will be completed within a weeks time, and till date we are getting power only from the damaged pillar which can fall anytime.

We request your good offices to talk to the concerned authorities and give instruction to replace the faulty pillars as early as possible.
