Gross negligence of GEB in Ghogha Gate area: The system that disconnects the electricity connection if there is a delay in the electricity bill is indifferent to complaints that people's lives are in danger: Advocate

The GEB is located at Nagindas Shah Vanijya Bhawan at Ghogha Gate Rupam Chowk, one of the busiest and major areas of Bhavnagar city. Serious negligence on the part of the system has come to light. Although the condition of electricity meters has become extremely dangerous here, the administration is turning a blind eye, due to which there is a lot of anger among the locals. The electricity meters fell down and the wires were opened. In this regard, Advocate Jaydev Singh B. Expressing anger over the matter, Gohil said that the electricity meters have fallen down here and all the wires are hanging in open and scattered condition. The area is very crowded and there is a constant movement of people. In such a dangerous situation, a major short circuit can occur at any time or cause serious loss of life. Indifferent to complaints that people's lives are in danger He has complained to the GEB several times in the last two-and-a-half months, both verbally and in writing, but no action has been taken by the system. The system, which disconnects the electricity connection immediately if there is a delay in the electricity bill of the consumers, is quite indifferent to complaints that people's lives are at risk. The work should be completed immediately Despite complaining again an hour and a half ago, only excuses are being made by the GEB employees that it will take 'time'. Locals say that cattle are also roaming in the area, due to which the power supply is open, posing a major threat to animals or mankind. This work should be completed immediately before the system wakes up and any major mishap occurs.
