Fault in transformers is also one of the reasons behind continuous power failure in the area.
local residents claim that irrigation in villages of Pandaria totally depends on electricity and most of the farmers are now engaged in sowing seeds of vegetables but due to power outage, they are unable to irrigate their land.Early this month, transformer of Domsara village was damaged by fire and the entire village plunged into darkness. The villagers have requested the Energy department to repair the transformer, but their pleas have gone to deaf ears.One of the villagers, Santosh Chandrawanshi, said that on June 6, the villagers had informed the department about the incident, but till date, none of the officials have turned to solve their problem. Even the officers are allegedly not giving any satisfactory answer to the people
Blackout during rainy season has increased the risk of snakebites, insects and animals in the village. On the one hand people in the village are struggling with humidity during daytime, on the other, spending their night in fear.
