He said no one should climb electricity poles for electricity connections. Avail PACCA connection to the pandals through the departmental staff only. The organizers must use ISI marked standard service wire without any joints for connections in the pandals apart from proper capacity MCB for protection and safety.

He advised the organizers to always examine the surroundings of the power line locations before doing any electrical work in and outside the Ganesh pandals. He asked them not to allow children to come close to power lines, poles and other hazardous electrical equipment.

“If anyone in the pandal suffers any electric shock, the organizers must seek immediate medical attention and inform the electricity department staff,” Reddy said asking people not to touch the snapped wires and in turn inform the electricity department immediately through 1912/100 or to local fuse off call office.

Conveying Ganesh festival greetings to the consumers, Reddy said the general public and pandal organizers must follow all safety precautions to make this festival more joyful and prosperous.
