      Address: 5/118,ANNA NAGAR,KALLATHUR,621803, 621803

      I'm writing this letter kallathur from ariyalur district. Our eb office is located in jayankondam. We have faced uninformed power cut frequently if its one or two hours we aren't complaining, now we have faced 12 hours power cut. About this issue we have complained already to ae and some other eb employees.

      The employee's told so many reason for power cut, whatever the reason is they should resolve it. Seriously our people are struggling a lot. Especially school going kids, they can't concentrate on their studies due to lack of sleep.

      More then 12 hours power cut is serious issue in our village. We need immediate action on this.

We have been working all the day and trying to fall asleep at night when we are experiencing this in this kind of hot summer days. Its horrible daily. Please look into this complaint and do us a favour.

      Thank you!

              There is no proper power facility in ambattur cholapuram area. Always power failure and low voltage. People cont live in this area with kids and all. Government just watching all and being simply. If we call to ambattur eb office. No one will pick the call. Lots and lots of flats are presented in this cholapuram area and no transformer are fix to handle the power supply.

              I think i'm just speaking here. Dono who will take up this complaint in this nation!!

                  I live in nilamangai nagar, adambakkam. Many a times i have submitted complaint through this forum regarding unannounced powercuts for hours together daily especially during evening or night (That too only after 10pm) in our area. The voltage of supplied power also is low always. While the minister maintains that there is no powercut at all in tamil nadu, i don't know why they cut power daily in our area for hours together causing lot of agony to everybody. Won't the higher authorities take immediate action. Lots of flats are coming up and the transformer capacity is still the same. We want relief from powercuts in this area. Will authorities take swift action?

                        Hi je sir,

                        Sir,

                        May possibly i draw your kind attention about the frequent breakdowns of electricity in this locality and the wonderful inconvenience it causes to the residents! Ours is not really a new locality. It got electricity connections many years back. It appears, even so, that the engineer in - charge from the sub-station has not correctly checked the installations and in-spite from the new wires and energy appliances used, there are failures regarding electricity several times in a day. Sometimes, the current is turned off for several hours in a very stretch.

                        Students suffer greatly and cannot maintain study.

                        Thanking you,

                        Yours faithfully,
                        Murugan

                          I am getting tneb consumption charges payment reminders thru' sms regularly for the service connection no.[protected]
                          This service connection does not belong to me and i am unnecessarily reminded.
                          And also the right person will not be getting these reminders.
                          I request you not to send reminders for this particular service connection to my mobile no. [protected] any more. Thanks for understanding.

                            Our area street lights are working regularly, mostly in off state. On in some days and off in many days. Many times complain launched, but not taking actions. Other areas lights are working regularly in all days. Our area light works for 2 days then 10~15days not working / in off state. Then 2 days on & off, vice versa.
                            Many misuses happening. Children & teen girls are finding difficult to go outside due to this darkness around.
