Residents Urge Action on Transformer Danger in Roadside Garbage
A transformer is a big machine that helps bring electricity to people's homes.
On a road called Shabazguda-Warasiguda, there is a transformer with lots of trash and dirt around it.
There are also wooden blocks and cracks on the road next to it.
A person who lives there, named Sreelekha, wrote to the city authorities to ask for help.
She wants the trash and wood cleared away from the transformer to keep everyone safe.
Wood and garbage can catch fire if they get too close to the transformer.
That could cause a big fire or even an explosion.
She also asked workers to fix the cracked road and put garbage bins nearby.
She wants signs saying 'don't throw garbage or wood near the transformer.'
She hopes people will learn to be careful around transformers.
