After flagging off the Electrical Safety Propaganda van,
during interaction with media persons, Shri

electrocution was impeccable with only 3 deaths during 2014-15, that too

unstable. He said that due to lack of awareness only, accidents take place, and
as a preventive step, this Awareness Campaign is being taken up by Salem
Division. He further stated that in these 3 days, the
