APSPDCL app feature speeds up agricultural power connections
An electricity company in India made a new phone app feature to help farmers get power for their farms faster.
Farmers can now type in their application number to see where their request stands.
Before, farmers had to visit electricity offices again and again after paying for materials and work.
That caused delays and was a lot of trouble for them.
The company is also being stricter with its workers to stop rule breaking.
Some workers who broke the rules have been disciplined.
The app works from anywhere and at any time.
Farmers without smartphones can check a list at their local electricity office instead.
This helps farmers save time and get connections more quickly.
APSPDCL added a mobile app feature letting farmers check the status and seniority of their power connection applications by entering the application number.
The feature aims to eliminate repeated office visits and speed up service delivery for agricultural power consumers.
Chairman and Managing Director Siva Sankar Lotheti announced the move on Friday in Tirupati.
APSPDCL has tightened processes and taken disciplinary action against erring staff to reduce delays and curb procedural violations.
Farmers without smartphones can verify their application status from the list displayed at local electricity offices.
