Hyderabad: Power supply authorities on Friday urged people to be cautious while flying kites on the occasion of 'Makara Sankranti' on January 15. They have appealed to people to fly kites in open areas, far away from overhead power lines, transformers and substations.
In an advisory, TSSPDCL chairman and managing director G Raghuma Reddy requested people to desist from using metal-coated threads as they could cause electrocution.
He asked people not to try to remove kites that get caught in power lines or fall in sub-stations.
"Leave it there. Don't touch any part of the kite or string and keep everyone away," he cautioned.
