High tension cable hanging low. Illegal construction. Possible action?
We have high tension wires hanging over our home. The height is very low and it hangs 2-3 feet from the terrace. All the houses in our locality are Illegal constructions and we are afraid that if we complain about the wires, the house may be bulldozed as well.
How do we get the low hanging cables removed without any risk to our houses being razed as well?

If your colony is unauthorized then it will be removed pursuant to order’s of government. There are many unauthorized colonies in Delhi which have been regularized by the Government.
You can check on the below mentioned site whether your colony has been regularized:
