In a complaint filed against the negligence of Idrees Khan,a Junior Engineer and Farid Ahmed Tak,AEE in PDD,who were absent when a major fault developed in Bhaderwah city’s Gawari receiving station.In the complaint it was stated that the two casual labourers were asked to climb the electric pole for effecting repair.Both the labourers were electrocuted in the absence of precautions taken by the two engineers who were supposed to be on duty and ensure that proper shutdown of electricity supply around the spot was carried out.
It said that since the shut down was not effected and because the high tension satrangal feeder was located at a distance of two to three feet from the faulty city feeder the two untrained and unprotected labourers working on the pole,were not provided with adequate protection of rubber gloves they got electrocuted and died on the spot.The two engineers had appeared on the scene next day hence they deserved severe punishment by way of dismissing them from the Government services. |
