We the citizens of Nongpoh, Ri Bhoi District, Meghalaya are facing a very serious power cut problem. There is not a single day that would go by without us having to endure multiple power cuts. And for most cases, the duration of the power cut goes on for hours on end.

We have been complaining to our local office and our linesmen but to no avail.

Despite being the district headquarter, it is a sad reality to see that the power situation is really bad compared to any other town in the state.

Ask any person who got posted here at Nongpoh and they would all tell you the same thing: ridiculous frequency of power cuts.

We have been facing this brunt for a long time now and especially during this pandemic where most of us are confined to our homes and the students are all taking their classes, exams and admissions online.

It's 2021, and it's high time we at least get reliable power for our homes, schools and business establishments.

Please sign this petition asking our Hon'ble Minister of Power and the responsible department to look into this issue as soon as possible.

Sincerely,
A Nongpoh Citizen.
