MADURAI
The Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (TANGEDCO), Madurai circle, in a statement, asked youth and children to stop flying kites here on Wednesday.
Kites often get stuck in electric poles, lines and transformer boxes - affecting power supply. The department says that it has already issued a press statement banning the flying of kites.
“During times of COVID-19, it becomes difficult and dangerous to fix the lines. Youth should cooperate with the department and ensure that power supply is not affected,” the statement read.
