AGARTALA, March 18 (TIWN): Despite of several initiatives to curb down the frequent electricity theft cases in the State, miscreants yet continue to theft power through hook line.

This problem is getting severe day by day creating problem for the common mass. On the other hand, several families in the interior parts are deprive of the electricity connection for prolonged many years.

It is to be mentioned here that due to the frequent fault in the production units of the state loss of huge power due to hook-line users, the TSECL has allegedly increased time of the load shedding.
However, due to continuous fault in the power generation the people are facing massive problem.
