People of 15 villages are troubled due to power outage, low voltage when power is switched on

Bastar does not seem to be getting relief from the problem of electricity. The biggest problem is in rural areas. The situation is such that electricity is going off 8 to 10 times daily. Along with this, the problem of low voltage has also increased. The electricity company is claiming to streamline the electricity system to give relief to the consumers, but it does not seem to be of any use on the ground.

Recently, the electricity company also ran a maintenance campaign under pre-monsoon maintenance, but the situation is such that despite this maintenance, the problem of consumers does not seem to end. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, more than 15 villages within a radius of about 5 to 7 km from the city faced the problem of low voltage. The problem that started at around 8 pm on Tuesday evening was fixed on Wednesday at around 12.30 pm. Meanwhile, the problem of low voltage and voltage fluctuations persisted throughout the night. 15 to 20 thousand people from more than 15 villages including Sargipal, Niyanar, Jatam, adjoining the city, had to be affected by this.

Despite complaints, the electricity company did not pay any attention to this problem, due to which the problem of low voltage and voltage fluctuations continued throughout the night. Meanwhile, consumers are not getting any benefit from the state government’s More Bijli app.
