Chandigarh, February 9– Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN) has appealed to all farmers and general consumers not to tamper with power lines, transformers, or any other electrical equipment and not to attempt repairing them on their own. It has been observed that farmers and consumers often try to fix power faults themselves and attempt to climb electricity poles or transformers without taking proper safety measures. This has led to repeated electricity-related accidents.
Sharing information in this regard a spokesperson of UHBVN urged farmers and consumers to avoid repairing electrical equipment themselves and instead register their electricity-related complaints through official channels such as the UHBVN Samast App, the toll-free numbers 1912 and 1800-180-1550, or by visiting their nearest electricity office. The Nigam’s employees are technically qualified and specially trained to handle such work, the spokesperson added.
In this regard, the Nigam has requested public cooperation and urged people to register complaints through the designated channels rather than taking risks themselves, so that accidents can be prevented and a safe power supply can be ensured.
