    I am residing at Sithalapakkam and i made complaint on 22-March-216 about Electrical line was very low with high danger position in front of my house.
    It have also the same lower lower position on 2nd street.
    My father and me directly complained so many time but i did not got any call or action on this.
    Whenever we approach the office to find our what's wrong all we get is harsh reactions and answers.
    The TNEB and Panchayat office officers of Sithalapakkam are the responsible persons if any inconvenience caused to heath or life of people.
    There is a number [protected]/[protected] to contact me and my TNEB number is 3386402.
    Here i enclosed my complaint letter and photos for your reference.

    Kindly take an action.

                I am residing at Sithalapakkam since Nov 2015 and there is not even a single day gone without powercuts. Since a week there has been very frequent power cuts especially during the nights. No one is answering our calls when we try to reach them.

                Since last week there was power hardly for 4 to 5 hours in a day. There is a number [protected] to contact them. But whenever we try to call them the line says busy and we have to call them continuously for atleast 20 times and then they pickup and the answer we get is the power will come in sometime. For the past four days.
                Saturday - 3.30 am - 11.30 am, Sunday - 9.30 PM - 12 midnight, Monday - 7.30 AM till 11.30 AM, and 10.30 PM till 1.30 Pm and today (Tuesday) 7.30 - 8.30 the power cut happened.

                Whenever we approach the office to find our what's wrong all we get is harsh reactions and answers and the repeated statement - The Power will come in sometime.

                We have a kid of 3 months who is having a tough time and not only us, there are more small babies around our place and many IT people in here. The housewives are having very tough time. The Older generation's difficulties need not to be mentioned.

                Kindly take an action.

                          High power over head 3 lines connecting Perungalathur Maamallan street and Vandalur Mookambigai Koil street are crossing the road. 3 years before the lines were away from my Building. Due to natural calamities the posts are inclined. I notice that this resulted in crossing 1 of the lines crossing my pot and also my building just 6 ft. above my first floor. Since this is High Power cable Painters/electricians refuse to carry out any work at my first floor fearing that the high power OH line might result in fatal accident. Please arrange to initiate suitable action and order EB personnel to inspect and carryout remedial measures on permanent basis. I also would like to place this on record that any mishap TNEB should be held responsible. I had also intimated
                          Honbl C M. about this.
