Hyderabad: Justice A Abhishek Reddy of the Telangana high court on Thursday sought to know from Hyderabad Growth Corridor and TS Transco officials why they cannot consider the plea of residents of Serene County Owners\u2019 Welfare Association, Gachibowli, and conceal high tension power lines in their colony, by taking them underground.
\nThe county\u2019s counsel Prasad Rao Vemulapalli said they were not opposed to laying HT power lines to the growth corridor. \u201cWhat we are saying is that let the authorities lay them through underground cables. In any case, they have been laying such underground cables at many places. Our area is not more than 150 metres and it is not difficult for them to conceal these dangerous lines beneath the earth to this limited extent,\u201d he said.
\nThe high court had earlier recorded the contention of Transco\u2019s counsel Vinod Reddy that following resistance from the residents, the task of laying power lines in the county area was stopped. \u201cLet that order continue for some more time, in the meantime, we will respond to the contentions raised in the counter filed by Transco,\u201d the petitioner\u2019s counsel said. In any case, the task of laying power lines would take more than six months, he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
