Uttarkashi village seeks urgent safety action over 33 KV power line
Residents of Ganeshpur in Uttarkashi’s Bhatwari block say a 33 KV high-voltage line passes dangerously close to their fields and homes. With paddy harvesting and threshing underway, villagers fear an accident and want the line shifted or additional safety measures installed. Officials of Uttarakhand Jal Vidyut Nigam have been approached repeatedly, they say.
