Street lights



































Our city still has its 'royal' traces. The lamp posts in the Museum to Kawdiar route would certify this. The street light poles are of the beautiful royal designs. They are made of cast iron (?) and made by the British (?). They are still in its royal form. That's all fine.
But the way they are maintained is very pathetic. Look at the lamp post (my focus is always at the bottom !). The electric lines giving connections to the lamps are all exposed (but for a thin piece of insulation tape). And the cover (shield) is missing.
This being at a bus stop, people stand very close to these wires. This is a SAFETY HAZARD.
Is any KSEB wizard listening ?
