We live in
Shollinganallur area and for the past one month, the voltage has been very low and we were never able to switch on air conditioner. The heat has been so intense and most of the nights we are not able to sleep, i asked the eb people and they say, they cannot help as the incoming voltage itself is low. I do not to whom should we go ask for. This is shame of my people and my country, no compatators for tneb. No choice to change service provider. This is ok not life threatening incident. Think about scams across india filthy politicians. Omg i am not getting sleep.

    While passing through the 8th street in shakti nagar porur, i noticed that a couple of trees have grown tall and are touching the live wires in the left side corner house. On taking up the matter with the old lady living in that house, she expressed her inability to cut the branches as none of the men she tried to engage were ready to do the job as they are apprehensive of a shock. Kindly do the needful immediately:-

    Right side turning of 8th street (Left corner house)

        Hi,

        Power at my house for the last 4 years has been irregular at best with frequent fluctuations and a couple oddball high surge thrown in. Every now and then my meter readings too are off the charts
        . I've complained to your dept but they feign ignorance. Please can you have a look at our frequent power fluctuations that has pulled our lives apart. I hardly get to sleep and barely any sleep if at all. The issue happens every sunday night and many other nights all other streets have power except our own. Seems a convenient coincidence and nothing i can do. Please have this fixed at your earliest convenience.

                            Power cuts in the recent month. Because of all this, very tragic effects can be noticed on the health, mental stability and study habits in our children. every family member in the family is facing problem. Aged are unable to get the rest and relaxation they require. It is difficult to bath without geyser in such a cold water. Kitchen work and other chores of our mothers are getting disrupted as well. The conditions are undescribable. i thank you in anticipation and expect the condition to improve soon in near future. so i would like you to write an article in one of your esteemed columns regarding this topic. Through the columns of your esteemed daily, i want to draw the attention of the respective authorities to the frequent breakdown of electricity in my street.

                            Thank you
                            Yours faithfully
