BESCOM - shifting transformers

BESCOM MD himself came on to explain the circumstances under which a transformer shifting can be effected, since nobody wants it in front of his house, while wanting the power alone.

The proposal for extensive debate and discussions of bills in order to have better laws, made by the head of a think tank in Delhi was fully endorsed by Prajagalu, who simultaneously thought that 'praja.in' provided the ideal vehicle for it.
