Concerned over the increasing instances of misuse of agricultural power (AP) connections all across the state, the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited has issued strict directions to the field staff to curb the use of farm power (tubewell connection) – supplied free of cost against government subsidy – for domestic or any other purpose.
The supervisory officials have been asked to keep an eye on such AP connections that are located within the boundary of houses or where a boundary wall has been constructed after the release of tube well connections and take appropriate action to ensure that farm power supply is not used for any other purpose.
