Low-hanging power lines leave Chhatarpur school community at risk
Published
Residents in Chhatarpur district say electricity lines are hanging close to the ground near a school, creating an accident risk for children and other passers-by. Khabar Lahariya's local report documents the hazard and community concern. The material supplied does not say whether the electricity utility has inspected the site, isolated the line or scheduled repairs.
Why it matters
