Electricity officials reach remote Lingalapalle village
Electricity department officials went to a remote village called Lingalapalle, which is hard to reach because it's on a hill with deep valleys.
The village doesn't have good roads or easy access to services.
The officials talked to the villagers, listened to their problems, and taught them about electricity and safety.
They promised to fix electric poles, replace damaged ones, and install new transformers.
The villagers were very happy because they usually have to wait a long time for help.
The officials said they will keep doing this to help remote villages like Lingalapalle.
Electricity department officials trekked to the remote hilltop village Lingalapalle in Veldurthi mandal as part of the ‘Currentolla Janabata’ programme.
The village is cut off from main roads and urban amenities, with limited transport and longstanding challenges in accessing electricity services.
Officials interacted with residents, addressed their concerns, and raised awareness about power supply, consumer rights, and safety measures.
ADE Subbanna announced plans to erect new electric poles, replace damaged ones, and install transformers as needed.
Villagers expressed gratitude for the direct outreach, which they said is vital for hill and valley communities facing delays in basic services.
