Minister directs KSEB chairman to restore power supply in Rasaq’s house in Thiruvambady

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Power Minister K Krishnankutty directed to restore the power disconnected in the house of Rasaq over the Thiruvambady KSEB office attack. Power supply will be restored today if he assures not to attack the officials again. Minister K Krishnankutty directed KSEB Chairman to restore power.

KSEB chairman Biju Prabhakar had ordered to disconnect power supply in the house of Ajmal, who attacked KSEB office and assaulted linemen, until further notice. He attacked the office for disconnecting power supply over non-payment of bills. KSEB estimated a loss of Rs 3 lakh. Ajmal of Thiruvambady Ullattil House attacked the office.

The power minister had earlier responded to the incident saying that KSEB is a company and has the authority to disconnect power. Power supply will be disconnected if the bill is not paid. He unleashed violence in the name of it. So, do you think that what he did is right. Who can assure that he will not attack again if gone to restore power. Such a decision was taken due to that.

Not UP model, not revenge. Thrashed three people, said will attack again. Why did he thrash after paying the money and restoring power supply. Has anyone given him the authority to attack and destroy if power supply is delayed? The MD took such a step to protect the employees,' explained the minister.
