They said in bone chilling winters the residents of the areas are suffering huge inconvenience especially elders, patients and children.
They said in times of pandemic, many elder patients need supply of oxygen however due to shortage of electric supply in the area the PDD officials have put their lives at risk.
“Despite the matter was communicated to concerned officers who assured the damaged transformer will be lifted up soon, however two days have been passed since and no action visible on ground”, the locals told.
They appealed higher authorities to intervene into the matter and ensure the replacement of damaged transform in the area at the earliest.(KNS)
