            Free power supply up to 750 units bimonthly is given to the power loom weavers who are having their own work sheds and own power looms.
            But in thiruvallur district, pallipat taluk, podaturpet town panchayat, kancheepuram street (East) & pillaipalayam street there are so many peoples enjoying the free power supply with out power loom.

            First by installing power loom, they get free power supply service connections and after a lapse of certain period they sell the power loom and enjoying the free power supply continuously for domestic purpose. Some others keeping the power loom idle, they go for some other jobs and even for government jobs and continuously enjoying free power supply for domestic purpose.

            Some government employees are also availing free power supply service connections.

            Kindly identify such a service connections in these area (Kancheepuram street – east & pillai palayam street of podaturpet town panchayat) and take necessary action to disconnect the free power supply service connections.

              Sir,

              I am running the clinic for the last 27 years and there is one junction box in front of the clinic. Now the condition of the junction box is very bad and anything happens to patients visiting the clinic are finding difficult to enter due to the open box with wires hanging on the road. Matter becomes dangerous once rain pours as water logging place it it is based on the road.
              I request you to replace the box and make arrangements to raise the level by three feet and safeguard the interests of public. I should not be responsible for any unto ward incident. Kindly do the needful.

                          Again, the trespasser has installed the electrical connection on[protected].03 pm to pump water in unauthorized bore well, lamp and cctv camera in my site with illegal extension of electricity from site no: 8 to my site no: 7 even though already has paid excess charges as penalty already on[protected]. (Photos enclosed). Today we found and witnessed by police on[protected].03 pm. Photos enclosed for your references.
                          Also, during the night times, the trespasser has connecting the electricity line by simply joining the disconnected lines for pumping the bore well water at night times and disconnecting the wires in day time and covering with teflon tap. They have not removed all the wires in my site no: 7 and bore well electricity line. I have requested to remove all the electricity wires to ad and ae, o & m peelamedu, electricity board office, near navaindia, peelamedu, coimbatore – 641004 on the site itself during the inspection on[protected].15 pm. But there is no action taken so for. So, all the efforts which i have put for this, is simply washed out.
                          So, again i am begging you to all kindly remove all the electricity wires in my site no: 7 and which are connected to the bore well pump, lamp, cctv camera and bore well pump along electrical connection cables completely. By that, the trespasser should not connect the electricity line permanently in to my site at any point of time hence forth. I have enclosed the site photographs along with peelamedu police officers which witnessed on[protected].03 pm for your references. Thanking you again.
