    Very good move
    All concerned Engineers
    Technicians, linemen and all related to area must be immediately arrested and put in jail after termination
    also if any Human being is electrocuted by the fault of hescom double strictier rules must followed and , all their assest must be siezed
    And given to victim without any single question asked
    But Alas its India here children die by touching poles in rainy season
    All to be booked not to be left otherwise they will do their duty like in holiday in Switzerland
