Shocking sight: Electric pole poses grave threat

Malkajgiri: An electric pole bearing no. 138127 in JLNS Nagar in Malkajgiri division has got rusted totally. Locals are temporarily strengthening with cement. They are requesting officials to immediately arrange a new pole to prevent any untoward incidents.

"The pole is getting bent and colony residents are getting panicky about it. We are not allowing children to step out from the house alone, because if the pole bends, the wires may snap and fall to the ground, thus posing grave danger to our children," said Pothuganti Sri Bhagat, a resident of JLNS Nagar.
