“There is a need to upgrade the infrastructure as the demand for power has increased substantially,” said Patil. She added that the damaged and deteriorated DP boxes, pillars, poles, and worn-out electrical lines need to be replaced with new ones.
In addition, underground electrical cables should be installed to provide assurance to the residents. “If funds are required for these works, it is requested to forward the request to the government and arrange for the necessary funds,” said Patil.
