The plot is at Babu nagar Pattabiram. This is a corner plot abutting MTH road and Anna Road (Babu nagar). One electric post is on the side of MTH road and the wires are crossing my plot and going to Babu nagar. We do not know when it was erected. We were out of station for the past three years and we have not noticed that it will be a problem for us when we start construction. Now I have started construction of a building in that plot and the over head wires would be a danger for our building and the workers who work in that building.

Especially lineman Saravanan and foreman Thirupathi collecting money from everyone(Farmers, Residential people and others) for maintenance/repair works which they attend.

                  Dear sir, Today(12-Nov-2016) i went to pay the bills and in the amount collection centers they ask to give the correct change. Usually every time they ask like this always, if they have no change then we have to move away by losing the amount. Today i want to pay Rs9911 and i am having the amount Rs10911 by expecting the balance amount Rs100. But they refused to accept the amount and ask me get the change. Further asked for the reason, they are telling that the higher authorities informed like that. Before me an old man give away his Rs17 to the counter man. How the Government office is running like this in these kind of days?

                    I keep complaining about the sloppy work done in setting up the new boxes and the cables are lying outside the unit. Never seen such a shabby work.
                    It is a very serious matter. People go and urinate around that area despite our telling. Kindly do something.

                    This transformer unit is in new avadi road between the two petrol bunks which adds to more potential danger

                              Please understand that a transformer is going to be installed in front of my house at ashtalakshmi nagar, alapakkam, thiruvallur district by maduravoyal electrical division without my knowledge and prior intimation. They have placed an electric pole in front of my gate which causes obstacle to the ground floor parking area. The poles are elevated towards the road. The width of the road is less, if any two cars pass by at the same time in opposite direction there is high risk of fire accident. This place is not suitable for installing high power transformer as it is a resident area. Minority of the houses are in maduravoyal area and majority of the houses are in valasaravakkam area in the same street. Installing the transformer might cause human threat as there are many children playing near my house. There is steel zinc sheet on roof and sewage pipeline beneath near by the transformer. Hence, i request you to take necessary step to relocate the installation to other open space which is available near by area. Thank you
