Delhi: Dangling Wires and Leaning Poles Pose Electrocution Risk

Areas across East Delhi, including Vivek Vihar, Shakarpur, Preet Vihar, Krishna Nagar, Laxmi Nagar, Mandawali, and New Ashok Nagar, are grappling with a serious safety concern. Investigations revealed that electricity and cable wires are frequently found hanging low and in a disorganized state across these localities.

This hazardous situation, characterized by dangling wires and leaning poles, has instilled a pervasive fear of accidents, particularly electrocution, among the residents. The problem has been a recurring issue, with past incidents indicating the grave danger posed by the poorly managed infrastructure.

The sub-standard condition of these essential services highlights a critical public safety issue that requires immediate attention from the authorities to prevent further tragedies.
