    Sir,
    I hereby bring to your kind attention that there was power failure often in my house.
    In this regard, i would like to bring to your kind notice that i contacted the staff member (Mr. Shankar – [protected]) and explained to him that there was power supply in our area and even the street lights are burning in our street but unfortunately myself was suffering due to interrupted power supply for many hours and requested him to do the needful.
    I am painful to state that my problem/issue was not solved till date. Hence, i request your good office to take necessary steps and do the needful at the earliest.
    Thanking you
    M. Haribabu.

          Olympic cards ltd,
          Kanigaiper, uthukothai thaluka.

          For the past 6 days there is a often power cut during the working hours of the day, from 9 am till 5 pm

          In our industry we run 484 hp ht line but failure of current we have to inccur huge expense for running dg sets, which is a loss to company like paying two expenses. What is the reason for applying ht?. It has to be consistent i power lines means not to have power cuts. But here its a total waste of such facility. We have approched the local eb centres but there is no response and more over there is only one foreman is on duty and he says, all the staffs are in leave.

          If this is the situation which is going to prevail what is the use of paying minimum demand and investing so much indistrian transformer pillars.

          Expecting a immediate interveion on this issue

          With disappointment

              There is no electricity supply from the past one week. Nevertheless the electricity is not properly supplied from past 2years. The village people's main occupation is weaving. Where there is no current, there has no words to speak about family income. The government should consider village people as we are also paying to govt. Corruption occurs everywhere, there is no one has ears to hear about the issue in eb office. They expect money from us.

                Very low fluctuating voltage issue since a year, have given several letters to eb signed by all area people. We have met lot of ae, ad but no use at all. They have done nothing for us in improving power. Thiruninravur north section janaki nagar. I have the transformer approval letter signed in jan still they are putting transformer useless fellows. Fix this issue for us. We have visited them multiple times but our times were wasted.

                              The electricity box on pattamal street is located on a platform. This has been rusted and worn out long back and is kept covered using a cloth the picture clearly shows that it is a dangerous hazard to the public especially during rainy seasons. I think it is the fundamental duty of the eb deparment to maintain these boxes from a safety angle.

                              We have made representations from our association jera (Jethnagar residents association) to the ae eb but there is no action what so ever.

                              I think this is fundamental right to safety from citizen and this requires attention

                                  Respected sir,

                                  We people who are living in mariamman koil street, periyamanja kuppam pattaraiperumbadur, kanchipuram district. Are extremely fed up with the very low voltage power supply in our area. We have complained several times even directly to the a. E, but there is no response. Actually a transformer was sanctioned in our area about 10 months ago, but still there is no sign of it. The transformer was sanctioned to be built near our area, still we are not getting any response from tneb pattaraiperubadur. So we people who live in mariyamman koil street, naidu street, periyamanja kuppam are requesting you to take the necessary steps required, so that we people can get a normal current supply.
                                  மிசர பற்றகுறையால் விவசாயம் செய்ய முடியாத நிலையில் உள்ளோம் மற்றும் கை குழந்தை வைத்து கொண்டு மின்விசிறி இருந்தும் இயங்காத நிலையல் உள்ளது ஆகையால் சம்பத்தப்பட்ட அதிகாரிகள் புகாரினை அலட்சியம் காட்டமல் துரித நடவடிக்கை எடுக்குமாறு தாய்மையுடன் கேட்டுகொள்கிறோம்

                                      I'm living in gowri nagar, mugalivakkam, chennai and for past few months the voltage fluctuations in the area has increased drastically.
                                      It happens from 6 pm to 3-4 am in morning and due to this, neither ac or fans can run so it has become extremely difficult to even get some sleep at night.
                                      As it is summer time so the load demand will be more so now even on weekends the problem is occurring for whole day.
                                      We have complained many times to the electricity board but no action has been taken by them.
                                      I'm paying my taxes as well as electricity bill on time, so isn't this the responsibility of government bodies to at least provide the basic facilities to common people.

                                      Please look into the matter and try to resolve it asap.

                                        Dear sir/madam,

                                        For the month of february 18, my eb bill was generated with a consumption of 1720 units ranging to rs.9832. I was literally shocked to see the bill and approached ae for explanation. He checked the same and asked me to pay the bill. He given an assurance that it will not be repeated in future. With all difficulties i made payment even after knowing that my consumption would not be more than 400 units. Average consumption of eb for us is 400 units.

                                        May month bill has been generated on 25.5.2018 and once again got shocked looking at the unit consumption. Now bill got generated for 1970 units with bill valuing rs.11432. I dont understand what is happening and would like to inform that we are not running manufacturing unit. It is a normal residential house with basic amenities having 1 a/c, 1 tv, 1 fridge etc.

                                        To add to the above, we have shifted to new rented premise on 6.05.18. So literally property is vacant for 19 days during billing cycle which is more than 30% of the period. I want tneb to look into it and help us to change the defective meter and revise the billing amount. Since i have high regards to government sector undertaking, i made 1st payment of rs.9832 without any hesitation. But same cannot be continued.
