The Hindu
Action will be initiated against violators, says Vallavan
District Collector E. Vallavan on Monday declared all gatherings in the form of strike, protests and agitations in the offices of Electricity Department as unlawful.
“Electricity is an essential service. Critical services like hospitals and water supply are also dependent on electric power supply. Any indefinite disruption in the supply of electricity is likely to cause disturbance to public tranquillity and danger to human life, health and safety. This necessitates immediate prohibition of any activity which adversely affects the supply of electricity,” Mr Vallavan said in his order.
