The shortage of communication from DHBVN has raised critical questions on emergency preparedness and infrastructure resilience within the area, particularly throughout seasonal storms. With no official timeline for energy restoration, residents are left at nighttime—each actually and figuratively.
Native authorities are but to supply an official response or anticipated decision time. As town reels below blackout and humidity, residents proceed to demand accountability and transparency from the facility utility supplier.
