Kadaba: The Prime Minister’s office have positively responded to the letter written by Jagadish Kaparu, an Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad activist on behalf of the villagers of Kombaru in the taluk.

In his letter, Jagadish had mentioned about the problems his fellow villagers have been facing because of the network problem.

Kombaru, a hamlet surrounded by forest has a BSNL tower, but when there is a power outage, the network fails to work due to this the people of Kaparu, Bagpuni, Mugeradka, Kalaya, Kallartane, Kanala, Manibhanda, Kateti, Perundodi and Anila, which are parts of the said village, are facing grave problems.

Though the villagers had requested the telecom officials many times to address their problems but nothing was done.

Finally, Jagadish decided to write a letter to Prime Minister’s office.

“Students who depend on online classes are also deprived of education because of network issues. Therefore, BSNL has to address the network problem. Towers of other private telecom companies too should be erected to mitigate the problems of the people,” he had urged the PM.

In his letter, he also explained about the problem of wild animals faced by the people and also that the villagers find it impossible to contact the outer world in case of emergencies including health complications.

The PM’s office officials have immediately responded and informed Jagadish that they have directed the BSNL Mangaluru officials to take suitable steps to address the network problem.

The BSNL Mangaluru officials immediately contacted him and promised him to connect the tower to battery so that the network does not get disconnected when there is a power supply problem.
